I wishes Cristiano Ronaldo was an Argentine - Maradona

  Diego Maradona will like to see a player like Cristiano Ronaldo play alongside Lionel Messi for the Albiceleste.

Maradona, an Argentina legend prefers Messi to Ronaldo, despite the Barcelona forward’s inability to deliver a national cup.

“Cristiano is an animal,” Maradona told TyC Sports. “I wish he was Argentine.

“But I still prefer Messi. He is enjoying playing football and goes by opponents with ease.”

Messi has an Olympic gold medal, but he has yet to win a World Cup, which is something Maradona had accomplished once during his career.

“Leo cannot deliver the World Cup on his own,” Maradona added. “Even if he does not win a World Cup, we will still remember him.”
