It is the question that splits opinion among professional footballers and fans, who is the greatest player of the modern era – Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi?

Both have incredible career CVs and many have found it hard to separate the two in terms of who is better.

However, Arsenal’s German playmaker Mesut Ozil has come up with a new approach of answering the conundrum – introduce a third option.

‘They are both truly world-class players,’ Ozil said in a video.

‘But I am and always will be a [Zinedine] Zidane fan. So I say Zidane.’
