Jose Mourinho believes neither Cristiano Ronaldo nor Lionel Messi are the best players to have ever graced the game.
The Portuguese and Argentine duo have ruled the globe with their mesmerising football prowess for more than a decade.
But Tottenham manager Mourinho believes that Cristiano's namesake, Ronaldo Nazario, eclipses both the Juventus and Barcelona stars.
The Portuguese saw the teenage Ronaldo Nazario's talent first-hand when he worked as an interpreter for Bobby Robson at Barcelona, and believes a series of injuries curtailed his talent and prevented him for reaching even greater heights.
