Former Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic recently made headlines with his statement that he would rather play with Cristiano Ronaldo than Lionel Messi. The 33-year-old Bosnian, who played most of his career for Serie A giants Roma and Juventus, shared his thoughts on the two football superstars during a recent interview.
Pjanic spent two seasons playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus, making 77 appearances and winning three trophies, including two Serie A titles. The duo enjoyed success on the pitch, and Pjanic had nothing but praise for the Portuguese forward.
“I talk a lot with Cristiano Ronaldo. I have many memories with him, he is a great football player. He’s the best I’ve ever played with. He is one of the two or three strongest players in history,” Pjanic said.
Despite joining Barcelona in the summer of 2020 in a €60 million deal and having the opportunity to play alongside Lionel Messi, Pjanic did not have a successful stint at the club. The midfielder compared his experiences with both Ronaldo and Messi, stating, “I was lucky enough to play with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, it’s hard to say who is stronger. However, I enjoyed my career more with Ronaldo than Messi.”
Pjanic’s comments have certainly sparked conversations among football fans, with many weighing in on the debate of Ronaldo versus Messi. Currently plying his trade with Sharjah F.C., Pjanic’s honest remarks have given an insight into the experiences of playing alongside two of the greatest footballers of all time.
