Brazilian football icon Ronaldo has praised Lionel Messi for his 2022 Best FIFA Men’s Player – and asked him if he would be available to meet for a coffee in Paris this week.
Paris Saint-Germain superstar Messi was named the best player in the world during a glittering ceremony in France on Monday evening as he pipped club teammate Kylian Mbappe to the top prize.
Messi scored twice in Argentina’s remarkable World Cup final victory over France and also found the net in the dramatic penalty shootout at the end of the encounter. It ensured Argentina lifted the trophy for the first time since 1986 and became the first South American nation to win the competition since Brazil’s success in 2002 – spearheaded by Ronaldo.
