He doesn’t know how to play football – Cassano slams Ronaldo

Antonio Cassano, the ex-Italy international, criticized Cristiano Ronaldo, claiming that the superstar does not possess proper football skills.

Speaking on the Viva El Futbol podcast, Cassano argued that players like Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Aguero, Luis Suarez, and Zlatan Ibrahimović are superior strikers compared to Ronaldo, who has played for Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus.

He said, via GOAL, “Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t know how to play football. He could score 3000 goals, I don’t give a f*ck.

“[Gonzalo] Higuain, [Sergio] Aguero, [Karim] Benzema, [Robert] Lewandowski, [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and [Luis] Suarez knew how to link-up with the team.

“They knew how to do a lot of things, unlike him whose only objective has always been to score.”

It is worth noting that Cassano previously suggested in 2022 that the player should consider retiring after being benched at Manchester United.
