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.

Update:

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?
