Ligue 1: Cristiano Ronaldo Criticizes the French League Again
Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo has once again launched a strong critique of France’s Ligue 1 in a recent interview. The former Real Madrid icon expressed his views during a conversation with Piers Morgan, where he did not hold back his opinion on the French championship.
Ronaldo’s Comments on Ligue 1 and Other Leagues
Ronaldo emphasized that Ligue 1 revolves mainly around Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), contrasting it unfavorably with the Saudi Pro League and other competitions.
"The Saudi Pro League is much better than the Portuguese league and Ligue 1, where there’s only PSG. For me, it’s easier to score in La Liga than in the Saudi Pro League," he said.
On the Level of Competition and Playing Conditions
He insisted that many critics have not experienced the challenges of playing in the Saudi Pro League, particularly under extreme conditions like 40°C heat.
"They can say whatever they want, but the numbers don’t lie. They’ve never played in the Saudi Pro League. They don’t know what it’s like to run under 40°C heat. Just look at the number of top-level players we have in the league."
Ronaldo also reflected on his own performance potential, stating that even if he were playing for a major Premier League club today, he would continue to score consistently.
