The 44-year-old Brazilian gave a long interview to the most important sports center in Italy, where he talked about Lukaku, Cristiano, Dybala, Lautaro and of course Hakimi
The former Brazilian player, Ronaldo Nazario, Considered that Real Madrid “was wrong” to sell, in the last summer market, to the Moroccan Achraf Hakimi in the ‘ Inter Milan for 45 million euros and defined the Inter side as an “extraordinary” player.
“Inter signed an extraordinary player and Madrid made a mistake losing to Achraf in this way. From time to time I think, ‘Ronnie, imagine you and Hakimi, we would go very fast …’ I dare to say that it is one of the best signings of Inter in the last ten years “, Said Ronaldo, double “ex” of Inter and Real Madrid, in an interview published this Saturday in “La Gazzetta dello Sport”.
The 44-year-old Brazilian left an unforgettable mark on Inter, with whom he won the 1998 UEFA Cup, and signed in 2002 for Real Madrid’s “Galacticos”, with whom he won a League, a Intercontinental Cup and a Spanish Super Cup.
He spoke on the eve of the Italian Derby between among others and Juventus, i he surrendered to the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, youth leader, and the Belgian Romelu Lukaku, Inter striker.
“Like kilograms, Lukaku (on the field) weighs more. They are very different, with one thing in common. When you have players like them, it’s hard not to lean on them. Especially on someone like Lukaku,” he said.
“I don’t know if Cristiano will continue to play at 40, but I’m sure he will try. He is a different player when it came to Madrid, he has learned to manage his body and instead there is something that remains the same. “It can be a bit of a protagonist for almost an entire match and then decide in a minute that it can hurt you,” he added.
“They’ve always liked important matches, because they’re the ones they remember the most. Like their records, they interest them. They say they’re an obsession, but for me they’re their gasoline,” he concluded.
He also expressed his love for the Argentine Lautaro Martínez: “I like him because he’s not afraid of anything, because he’s determined when he plays. If you get distracted for a moment, he doesn’t forgive you. Because he shoots well, he has a goal-scoring sense, a pure striker, with striker’s eyes.”
And about the Argentine youth Paulo Dybala said: “Hey, I saw him with the state in the right way, with the desire to invent. And this heel kick for Chiesa, against Milan, seemed like a sign to me. It’s a shame. If he plays Dybala it’s easier to watch good football. “
Related to Andrea Pirlo, With whom he measured himself in his career as a player and who currently trains at Juventus, in his first experience on the bench, Ronaldo considered that he is a person with “superior soccer intelligence”.
“I saw him on the field, up close. He had superior football intelligence and that doesn’t change just because you go on the bench. He will never propose a trivial game and the team has to follow him. You need some time. , but Juventus bet on Andrea and I think they will give it to him, “he said.
