Pele is considered the World’s footballing Icon. His views and opinions are treated as gospel truth in footballing matters.
Speaking candidly, while munching on a sandwich made by the shop owner, an adoring Pele fan in London, Pele said, “ The two best (footballers) at the moment are obviously Ronaldo and Messi….Ronaldo is that striker who scores goals, but Messi does that and helps with assists.”
Saying this, he showed his clear preference for Messi as the best footballer in the World at present, though Ronaldo came a very very close second.
