Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, a professional in the ranks of the Saudi Al-Nasr Club, commented sarcastically on the International Federation of Football History and Statistics’ ranking of the best players in 2023.
The Spanish newspaper “Marca” published a picture of the International Federation of Football History and Statistics’ ranking of the best players in 2023, where Erling Haaland topped the list ahead of Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi, while Ronaldo’s name did not appear among the first nine players on the list.
“Marca” highlighted Ronaldo’s comment on a picture of the classification of the best players in 2023 according to the International Federation of Football History and Statistics, where the Portuguese star used an emoji to mock the list on Instagram.
“This is how Cristiano Ronaldo reacted to the International Federation of Football History and Statistics’ classification of the best players in 2023,” Marca said.
Ronaldo, 38 years old, is performing wonderfully this year, scoring 53 goals, and he tops the world’s top scorers in 2023, one goal behind Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe, and three goals ahead of Haaland.
Ronaldo has one match remaining this year, as he is expected to participate with Al-Nasr in the match against Al-Taawoun tomorrow, Saturday, while it has been officially confirmed that Kane and Mbappe will not be able to increase their scoring output in 2023, as neither of them will play other matches this year, while the Manchester City coach confirmed, Pep Guardiola said that his striker Haaland will not play due to injury in City’s match against Sheffield tomorrow, Saturday, which is the team’s last match in 2023.
