Ronaldo claims he is more attractive than David Beckham

In an interview with Piers Morgan on his YouTube channel, Ronaldo stated that if both he and David Beckham were unknown and walking along the same beach, he would be the one drawing more looks.

Recently, Cristiano Ronaldo has once again become the center of media attention after appearing in a new interview with journalist Piers Morgan on his personal YouTube channel. This marks the second time these two well-known figures have sat down together since their explosive conversation in 2022, when Ronaldo openly criticized Manchester United and coach Erik ten Hag.

During this reunion, the Portuguese superstar stirred public debate once more with a series of bold statements. He candidly mentioned the Argentina national team and declared that the World Cup is no longer just a “dream” for him. Additionally, Ronaldo surprised many by confidently claiming that the Saudi Pro League (where he currently plays for Al Nassr) is more difficult to score in than La Liga, the league where he once broke scoring records with Real Madrid.

With his usual style—arrogant, confident, and unafraid of controversy—Ronaldo continued to ignite heated discussions online. However, the most notable comment that caused a media frenzy came when Piers Morgan asked him about David Beckham, the former English star who is now president of Inter Miami, the club where Lionel Messi currently plays.

Specifically, when Piers Morgan asked: “If you and David Beckham were both walking on Copacabana beach for 10 minutes, who would attract more looks? Assuming neither of you were famous?”

Cristiano Ronaldo immediately responded with delight:

“If neither of us were famous, it would definitely be me, 100%. Beckham has a handsome face, but the rest of him is ordinary. As for me, I am NOT ORDINARY, I am PERFECT. I think Beckham knows that too.”

Ronaldo’s brief but confident reply quickly went viral across social media platforms. Many saw it as a humorous remark reflecting CR7’s trademark “overconfidence” style. However, some critics argued that Ronaldo is increasingly losing humility, especially by dragging legendary names like Beckham into comparisons.

More notably, this statement came at a time when Beckham and Messi are jointly making Inter Miami a sensation in American soccer. Therefore, Ronaldo’s unexpected “jab” at Beckham was seen as a subtle dig at Messi, his longtime rival for over 20 years.

The recent interview between Ronaldo and Piers Morgan continues to spark intense debate among football fans worldwide. It is worth recalling that before the 2022 World Cup, Ronaldo had a fiery conversation with Morgan, during which he openly clashed with Manchester United. Ultimately, Portugal was eliminated in the quarter-finals, and Ronaldo had a disappointing tournament, losing his starting spot and scoring only one goal.
