    Ronaldo Not My Friend, Our Interaction Ends On The Pitch โ€“ Messi

    Argentina captain, Lionel Messi has given an insight into his relationship with his perceived career rival, Cristiano Ronaldo, revealing they are not friends.

    Messi, 37, and Ronaldo, 40, are considered two of the greatest footballers ever, sharing 13 Ballon Dโ€™Or titles and 81 trophies between them.

    The Argentine currently plays for MLS side Inter Miami and Ronaldo plies his trade with Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr.

    Both players were expected to cross paths at the Club World Cup but Ronaldo turned down opportunities to join clubs featuring in the expanded tournament.

    In a chat with DSports, Messi revealed his respect and admiration for Ronaldo but emphasised that they were not friends.

    He said, โ€œI have a lot of respect and admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo and for the career heโ€™s had and continues to have, because heโ€™s still competing at the highest level.

    โ€œThe competition with him was on the pitch. Each of us wanted to do the best for our team. Obviously, as always, everything stayed on the field.

    โ€œOff the pitch, we are two normal people. Weโ€™re not friends obviously because we donโ€™t spend time together, but weโ€™ve always treated each other with a lot of respect.โ€
