Rio Ferdinand has defended the accusations of arrogance directed at Cristiano Ronaldo after his recent statements that he is the best player in the history of football and the most complete.
Since the Don made these statements, he has been subjected to a mixture of criticism and ridicule, with constant accusations that he is arrogant and too arrogant to say such words.
Ferdinand responded to that in defense of Ronaldo by saying: “When Ibrahimovic says such statements, they say no to him, he is a wonderful and bold man and they praise him, but when he says Cristiano Ronaldo, they accuse him of arrogance.”
He also added: “Everyone who attacks Ronaldo always has a double standard when it comes to evaluating him.”
He continued: “Cristiano is always exposed to unprofessionalism, the crazy thing is that from 2007 until 2025 he was the top scorer for every club he played for and the top scorer for Portugal, what he did is unbelievable.”
“If there is a player who can say he is the most complete player in history, it is Cristiano Ronaldo without a doubt,” he concluded.
