"We didn’t play for money, we played for love. That shows greatness. I didn’t care about knowing my salary or bonuses, it was more important for me to play and for people to respect me. 

"Agents take care of other things. Messi comes to compete and play and he doesn’t care about money because he loves football."

They are both goat mls didn’t show interest in Ronaldo he could have played there easily everybody like money including Messi so you should stop that nosense 50 million dollars and being a share holder of apple and millions of dollars in equity is not small money either

I think you’re missing the point here bro.
Leo Messi has made a decision based on two facts only.

Him and his family would’ve been very happy staying in Barcelona at their home.
They’ve  now  chosen second choice based on standard of happiness, not money.

Ronaldo  has  only money on his mind.

And point of correction , Ronaldo  at no time is or was  anywhere near the top 5  footballers  to ever play the game , so don’t call this man 🐐  ever in your dreams even

You are still wrong it wasn’t Ronaldo fault that the Saudi offered him a contract the Saudi am sure if inter Miami offered him contract we could have heard it by the Leo father travel to Saudi to listen to that offer there wasn’t need for him to travel all the way just to listen if he wasn’t interested a phone call can solve all that we all know Messi suffered in Europe and wanted a place with less pressure which was USA it has nothing to do with money he could have taken 500 dollars as a pay if itsnt about the money stop talking nosense

Messi will continue to be the GOAT, GREATEST OF ALL TIME because of his passion for the game of football whilest the other Goat in Saudi Arabia will continue to be the GREEDIEST OF ALL TIME, thinking He's the greatest of all time...

Messi's intentions and priorities have always been very clear, it's to enjoy the game and family's happiness, unlike the so called wannabe Goats 🐐 in Saudi.
