I’d pick Messi’s left foot instead of Ronaldo’s right – Neymar

Neymar has joked he would rather have Barcelona team-mate Lionel Messi’s left leg than Real Madrid rival Cristiano Ronaldo’s right.

In a light-hearted exchange with UOL’s Mauro Beting, Neymar tackled several subjects including, unsurprisingly, the long-standing debate surrounding Messi and Ronaldo.


But Neymar cheekily suggested he would rather Messi’s left leg than Ronaldo’s right.

“I’d take Messi’s left foot, with all due respect to Cristiano, because my right foot is pretty handy too,” Neymar said, via Marca.

And to add further insult, Neymar, when asked who he would rather beat between Real Madrid and Manchester City, said, “I prefer beating Real Madrid to Manchester City.”
