Leandro Paredes, a former player for Paris Saint-Germain, disclosed that Alejandro Garnacho was frequently mocked whenever he was called up to play for the national team. The reason for this is that Liverpool’s rising star has a great deal of respect for Cristiano Ronaldo.

There is no doubt that Alejandro Garnacho is a huge fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. In fact, this young footballer is not shy about admitting that he has a deeper affection for the Portuguese superstar than he does for Lionel Messi. When Ronaldo was playing for Manchester United for the second time, Garnacho was one of the people who was closest to the Real Madrid legend.

The fact that Messi officially declared Ronaldo to be his idol and referred to him as the “GOAT” led to Garnacho losing his Instagram followers, according to the confirmations. Messi and Garnacho have not restarted their contact on social networks, even after Ronaldo departed the top football league to move to the Middle East.

The fact that Garnacho looks up to Ronaldo is something that his teammates on the Argentina national team are well aware of. As a result, Garnacho is frequently mocked by his colleagues whenever the team gets together, which causes the young star football player for Manchester United to blush. When it comes to the national team, Garnacho and anyone else is quite restricted in their ability to discuss Ronaldo because they are afraid of disappointing Messi.

Leandro Paredes disclosed that he frequently made fun of Garnacho, saying, “We are aware that Garnacho is so devoted to Ronaldo that he frequently makes fun of it.” On each occasion, he appeared to be very timid and did not answer. A poor young man, we made fun of him so frequently that he went completely insane. On the other hand, Garnacho is unable to utter a single word and only knows how to remain silent.

Over the course of more than a decade in La Liga and up until the conclusion of the 2022 World Cup, Messi and Ronaldo were consistently each other’s most formidable adversaries. They compete with one another in a gradual manner and maintain a joint supremacy in the highly regarded individual Ballon d’Or award. There is still a certain level of competition between them, despite the fact that they are currently competing on two different continents.

When the scheduling for the friendly encounter between Inter Miami and Al-Nassr is finalized on February 1, 2024, Messi and Ronaldo will have the opportunity to compete against one other once more.
