Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo: Popular British Rapper Stormzy Names His Five a Side Team

• Three Manchester United legends have been named in Stormzy's ultimate five-a-side team
• The popular rapper also included Lionel Messi and the Brazilian Ronaldo in a team without a recognised midfielder
• Both Messi and his arch-nemesis Cristiano Ronaldo have also been named in the rapper's ultimate team

Popular British rapper Stormzy was put on the spot to name his five-a-side team of all time. The rapper is a football fan and has often been spotted attending live games.

He recently attended Leicester City's game against Manchester City at the invitation of James Maddison.

During an interview with Sky Sports, Stormzy named both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in his team. Messi and Ronaldo have dominated football for over ten years and are arguably the best players ever.

Stormzy's team surprisingly has no midfielder. Manchester United legends Peter Schmeichel and Rio Ferdinand were chosen as the goalkeeper and defender, respectively.

"My defender, I'm going with Rio Ferdinand. He's my GOAT."

His team was completed with the Brazilian Ronaldo, who pundits have argued could have been the greatest ever striker had constant injuries not curtailed him.

Stormzy's star-studded squad

Stormzy's team has a wealth of experience and trophies between them. Ronaldo de Lima has two World Cup trophies, while the rest have a couple of Champions League trophies between them.

Schmeichel, Ronaldo and Ferdinand were part of the great Sir Alex Ferguson's squad.
