Being one of the best footballers of all-time attracts all positive and negative fans and players alike and the same could be said about Portuguese legend Cristiano Ronaldo.

It was gathered that Pique dislikes Ronaldo and that is normal because of their fierce rivalry in El Clasico matches during CR7’s time at Real Madrid.

On the other hand, former Fifa President Sepp Blatter once said:

"Messi is a good boy that every father and mother would like to have at home. Really, he is a good man, he is very fast and he is not exuberant, he is playing well, he is dancing, he is a kind man, really good.
"The other one [Ronaldo] is like a commander on the field of play… yeah, that's it. One has more expenses for the hairdresser than the other, but that does not matter.”

In November 2016, after Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid 3-0 in the derby, Koke made stunning statements about Ronaldo.

Clearly, Koke is not a fan of Ronaldo, who has cost Atletico 2 Champions League titles!

Who are the 7 football personalities who dislike Ronaldo?

  1. Pique
  2. Koke
  3. Lionel Messi
  4. Alejandro Moreno
  5. Pep Guardiola
  6. Xavi
  7. Sepp Blatter
