Endrick, a new football star recruited to Real Madrid, quoted Cristiano Ronaldo as his idol. This is also seen with Haaland, Mbappe, Saka, Vini Jr, Rodrygo, Kvara. So many young players today all state Ronaldo as an influence for them. Messi has more accolades than Ronaldo, but the only young players I can think that stated him as an influence is Julian Alvarez and Jude Bellingham. Why do you think most young players respect and admire Ronaldo more than Messi?

    You basically just mentioned 3+ mbappe who are linked to Real Madrid …. Immagine Immobile saying “Totti is the best striker in serie A” now that he plays for Lazio or all the pletora of “club x was my dream since I was child”

    So no not everybody look up to Ronaldo, it’s just the context
