Former striker Roman Pavlyuchenko, who played for Moscow's Spartak and London's Tottenham clubs, shared his thoughts on who is the best among football players. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He emphasized that compared to the famous Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine Lionel Messi, Zinedine Zidane played at an even higher level. In his interview, Roman Pavlyuchenko stated that Zidane stood out from others in ball control, speed, and movements on the field.
In his opinion, Zidane was stronger than players like Messi and Ronaldo due to his technique and approach to the game. For reference, after finishing his playing career, Zinedine Zidane began his coaching career.
He worked as the head coach of Real Madrid, and under his leadership, the team won the UEFA Champions League three times in a row. Zidane has left a significant mark in football history with his high skill, experience, and achievements.
