Messi and Ronaldo have been battling it out over the past few years, which has created a debate that has gone on for years.

Ceferin, who replaced Michel Platini as UEFA's new President, was asked who he felt was the better player between the Argentine and the Portuguese.

"They're both good for football, one has certain things better than the other," Ceferin was quoted as saying by Marca.

"Ronaldo is pure power, strength, determination whereas Messi is more of an artist. Who is better? It's the same question for Real Madrid and Barcelona—they are both good for football!"
