Former Portuguese and Real Madrid star Luis Figo believes Cristiano Ronaldo is not best even in his country and the former Benfica man Eusebio is ahead of him for his country.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Ronaldo recently won the first ever big stage trophy for Portugal and has been consistently winning trophies in the bigger club level tournaments. 31 year old is in stand to win his fourth world’s best player award and only Argentine player Leonal Messi is ahead of him.

Talking with AS Figo said,” I admire Cristiano and I enjoy seeing his achievements, He just gets better every year. He’s making football history. But even though I never saw Eusebio play, I would put him at number one for everything he stands for, for the love he showed me, his friendship and his advice. Everyone will say that I say that for this reason or that reason but ultimately it’s just about respect. “
