Chelsea Legend John Terry, on the never-ending GOAT debate, shared his thoughts.
The former Chelsea captain has picked Cristiano Ronaldo as his greatest player of all time, saying the Portuguese attacker is the best role model for young players. Terry, on several occasions, faced Ronaldo during his time at Manchester United before the latter moved to join Spanish giants Real Madrid in 2008, who has grown to become one of the greatest players in the world.

Cristiano Ronaldo, with his outstanding performances for club and country throughout the years, has cemented himself as one of the greatest football players in history, winning five Ballon d’Or awards, with only Lionel Messi having more (eight).

John Terry lauds Ronaldo
In a recent interview with the PFA, Terry expressed his respect for the Portuguese forward and said he was the best role model ever. Along with being the best everywhere he’s gone in his career, the former defender lauded Ronaldo.
He said:
“I’m going to upset a couple of people here, but I think I’m going to have to go with Ronaldo. When you’re talking probably the best ever, probably him and Messi, he has to be in my team.
“And I think because he’s been away and done it not only in the Premier League, done it in other countries and still achieved what he’s achieved, it’s incredible.
“Like you said, I think the Premier League is the best league in the world, it has been in the last 20 years and will continue to be, but this guy, everywhere he’s gone, he’s been one of the very best and continued to score goals. For every young player, he’s your prime example of who to look up to.”, as reported by Sportsskeeder
Ronaldo famously won his first UEFA Champions League title in 2008 with Manchester United after Terry missed a penalty in the final.
