Former Arsenal and Real Madrid star Mesut Ozil has settled the never-ending GOAT debate between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The long-running question of who wears the crown as greatest footballer of all time remains open to debate as the public opinion is split between Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine World Cup winner Lionel Messi.
Both legends have amassed unparalleled success, individually and collectively.
Messi is an eight-time Ballon d'Or winner and has been decisive for Argentina, winning two Copa America titles and the World Cup.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, has etched his name in history as the Champions League's all-time top scorer (140) goals, the first footballer to reach 900 official goals, and a five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
