Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has weighed in on the GOAT debate about who the better player is between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Casemiro shared a dressing room with Ronaldo at both Real Madrid and United.

However, it appears the Brazilian considers Lionel Messi the superior player.

When asked by Diario AS about the two footballers, Casemiro praised Messi’s qualities that made him great.

“I could never stop him on my own,” he said.

“It was impossible. I needed help from Toni Kroos, Luka Modrić, Sergio Ramos, but just me? Impossible. He was unstoppable.”

However, Casemiro insisted that football may never see another duo like Messi and Ronaldo.

He added: “It’s difficult to explain.

“Messi was one of the best players in history, but we had another player—Cristiano Ronaldo. What they both did is unrepeatable. In my generation, the best were Cristiano and Messi. They did a lot for football and changed it.”
