careers but which one of them has been the winningest player in soccer Lionel Messi for example is considered one of the most awarded players in soccer history having won several titles and individual Awards during his professional career Messi has won seven Ballon d'Or Awards a trophy which is given to the best soccer player in the world each year he has also won FIFA's newly created the best

created FIFA's the best award he is tied with Messi for having three titles in his Club career Ronaldo had a slight Advantage with five UEFA Champions League titles and four FIFA Club World Cups as for the Portuguese national team Cristiano Ronaldo left a lot to be desired not having won a single World Cup and despite both being award-winning players Messi has more important achievements than his opponent market value two soccer Moguls are considered the most famous and coveted players in the world but which one is the most valuable and in demand by clubs starting with the salary Cristiano Ronaldo is currently the highest paid soccer player in the world receiving almost 200 million euros per year to play for the Saudi Arabian Club Al Nasser however Messi could easily surpass his opponent if he wanted to as he turned down an offer of 440 million dollars per year to also play for a Saudi Arabian Club as far as Market values go Cristiano Ronaldo had the most expensive transfer of 100 million dollars when he moved from Real Madrid to Juventus in 2018. Lionel Messi on the other hand despite not having had a transfer as expensive as his rival he has already had a market value in 2018 estimated at 180 million euros according to specialized websites this means that if the Argentine left Barcelona at the time he would have had the most expensive transfer between the two and because it is very difficult to say which of the two Soccer Stars was really the most valuable and in demand we will consider this round tide point for both at the end of this battle we had six points for Cristiano Ronaldo against six points for Lionel Messi making this battle a draw but if you believe that there are still other arguments to defend one of the two right here below your best justification
