Juventus midfielder Arthur has the superstars Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in conversation with the AS compared to each other. The Brazilian knows the two exceptional players very well, he has already laced his shoes with them both.
“First of all, both are absolute champions,” said Artur, who played with Messi for two years at FC Barcelona before joining Juve and CR7 in the summer.
Arthur: Messi and Ronaldo are identical in that regard
As for attitudes, “Messi and Ronaldo are the same. They are always focused from start to finish,” said the 24-year-old Brazilian. “If you hit three times, think about the fourth hit.”
Ronaldo and Messi would “never switch off. It’s impressive and motivating at the same time, because they push you to the maximum,” enthused Arthur, but still sees a difference in both players.
“Ronaldo speaks more and is more approachable compared to Messi,” he said. “He never holds back when a teammate needs help and he showed incredible determination. He trains like an animal and knows no break. He leaves nothing to chance and always pushes you to the max.”
