In an interview for The Gazetta dello Sport, Michel Platini gave his opinion on many topics related to football. Asked about the end of Messi and Ronaldo’s career, “Platoche”, this football romantic, believes that the two football legends have tarnished their image a little by leaving Barça and Real Madrid.
The 84 European champion compares his end of career to those of the Portuguese and the Argentinian: “I said stop at 32. I could have gone to Barça, to OM, but I wanted to be identified with the club with which we had written history. Ronaldo was Real, Messi Barça. I would not have gone to another club, but to the USA or China.
