Watch: Nadal admits to preferring Messi over Ronaldo before saying he is a Madridista

The Spanish tennis star let slip that he prefers the Barça legend over Madrid’s top goalscorer.

Tennis legend Rafael Nadal has had his say on the debate we all thought was over.

A young boy met the star on the street and decided that the best thing to ask the man who has won 2 Olympic Gold medals, 92 singles careers titles - including 22 Grand Slam singles titles (14 French Opens, 4 US Opens, Wimbledon twice and the Australian Open twice) - whether he preferred Inter Miami’s new forward or the Al Nassr 38-year-old.

The five-time ATP Player of the Year replied “Messi, is better” before reminding the questioner “that I am a Madrid fan”.

What would you ask your hero?
