Juventus Boss Andrea Pirlo shuns Ronaldo, names Messi in his Dream XI
Andrea Pirlo was recently named Cristiano Ronaldo’s manager at Juventus after the sacking of Maurizio Sarri last weekend.
Apparently, the Italian football legend is not much of an admirer of the 35-year-old goal poacher after excluding him in his Dream XI.
But Barcelona captain and Ronaldo’s arch-rival Lionel Messi was included in the list of icons of the game – mostly dominated by retired men.
However, after arriving at the Allianz Stadium as the new sherrif in town, his first assignment would be to gain the confidence of the five-time Ballon d’Or winner after having described the Argentine the best.
Pirlo played against both superstars during his decorated football career, but chose the Barca captain as the tougher opposition between the two.
