Brazilian football icon Edson Araantes Do Nascimento, also known as Pele, is regarded by many as the greatest football player ever and Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is not far from him especially after he broke his record for the most career goals.

Pele had held the record of 757 career goals for almost five decades before Portuguese national team captain Cristiano Ronaldo smashed the record at the weekend during the league win over Udinese.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Juventus ended last year on a poor note following the 3-0 home defeat at the hands of struggling Fiorentina.

One of the most talked-about debates in the world is the one that involves Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona forward Lionel Messi.

It is a topic that has been talked about for over a decade, and will likely continue in the next one, even after they hang their boots.

The two players face-off in the Champions League when Juventus travel to Spain to take on Barcelona at the Camp Nou on Tuesday. Before the crunch tie, the managers of both clubs Andrea Pirlo (Juventus) and Ronald Koeman (Barcelona) were both asked the same question.

Cristiano Ronaldo has labelled Argentine legend Diego Maradona as an unparalleled magician. The Juventus star was speaking after learning about the Argentine legend passing away at the age of 60.

Regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time, Maradona has a huge following across the world.

In a few decades, Ronaldo might also be regarded in the same breath as the former great given his accomplishments in the game. Maradona had been struggling with a lot of physical issues in recent years and he died of cardiac arrest in his home. This led to tributes from around the world flowing to the icon.

Ronaldo is not the only superstar to pay tributes to the former great.

Gonzalo Higuain has surprisingly left out Cristiano Ronaldo from his list of best players.

Higuain shared the dressing room with Ronaldo at two different clubs but that was not enough for the Portuguese to be part of the list of the best three players at the moment. The player told ESPN the identity of his best three footballers.

Higuain shared the Argentine national team dressing room with Barcelona skipper Lionel Messi. The Inter Miami striker also snubbed Messi just like what was obtainable with Ronaldo. According to Higuain, Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski, Real Madrid star Karim Benzema and young Borussia Dortmund hitman ErlingHaaland are the top three players currently.

Cristiano Ronaldo has emerged as the king of Europe with his killer instincts in front of goals.

The Juventus attacker has proven to be a goalscoring machine throughout his career spanning clubs like Sporting Lisbon of Portugal, Premier League giants Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Transfer markets are the most unpredictable scenarios of the football world as you never know which player is going to be your trump card for the next season.

Gianluigi Buffon has signed another extension with Juventus and is not ready to give up his football career.

There have been speculations that the player will be retiring from the game soon but he has claimed that there is still fire burning inside him and he has much more left to do. He is not willing to retire from his career as he still feels there is more for him to do.

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has tipped Jadon Sancho to emulate Cristiano Ronaldo, should he make the switch to the Red Devils this summer.

The Mancunian giants have been tipped to land his signature from Borussia Dortmund, but so far, they have been unable to finalise a transfer agreement.

Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri has denied being in anargument with Miralem Pjanic during the training session before the match against Bologna.

The news about the argument has spread widely but Sarri denied it by calling it fake news.

Wales international Aaron Ramsey has said that he has had a different experience since making the move to Juventus last summer.

The 29-year-old joined the Bianconeri on a free transfer after the expiry of his contract at Arsenal but he has endured a tough season with a number of injury setbacks.
