Ligue 1: Cristiano Ronaldo Goes on the Attack Again

Every time Cristiano Ronaldo speaks in an interview, he seems to launch another criticism. The Portuguese star and former Real Madrid legend has once more targeted France’s Ligue 1.

Recently, Ronaldo gave an extensive interview to Piers Morgan, where he did not hold back. He delivered a sharp critique of Ligue 1, claiming the French league revolves mainly around PSG.

"The Saudi Pro League is much better than the Portuguese league and Ligue 1, where there’s only PSG. For me, it’s easier to score in La Liga than in the Saudi Pro League."

He emphasized that despite what others may say, statistics back his opinion. Ronaldo pointed out that many have never played in the Saudi Pro League or experienced running in 40°C heat. He highlighted the high level of talent in the Saudi league and added that, if he were currently playing for a top Premier League club, he would still be scoring many goals.

"They can say whatever they want, but the numbers don’t lie. They’ve never played in the Saudi Pro League. They don’t know what it’s like to run under 40°C heat. Just look at the number of top-level players we have in the league. If I were playing right now for a big Premier League team, I’d still be scoring just as many goals."

Summary

Cristiano Ronaldo criticized Ligue 1 for focusing only on PSG and praised the higher competitiveness and quality of the Saudi Pro League, supporting his claims with experience and stats.
