Real Madrid attacker Cristiano Ronaldo has hit back at Xavi following the Barcelona icon's latest comments about him.
Cristiano Ronaldo has taken aim at Xavi following the former Barcelona midfielder's comments claiming Lionel Messi is superior to the Real Madrid star.
Xavi stated this week that even though Ronaldo is an "extraordinary" player, he cannot be compared to Messi because the Argentine is on another level.
Ronaldo was not impressed by the midfield maestro's opinion and suggested Xavi is merely trying to make headlines, adding the 36-year-old's individual trophy cabinet is no match for his.
"Everyone knows that anyone who wants to make the front pages has to talk about me," Ronaldo told reporters.
