Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, Joao Neves, has snubbed Cristiano Ronaldo while naming the best player in the Saudi Pro League.
Despite sharing the Portugal national team pitch with Ronaldo on 14 occasions, Neves has opted not to name the Al-Nassr forward when asked to pick the Saudi Pro League’s best player.
In an interview with MVPs, the 21-year-old was prompted to identify the best players across various leagues.
But when the conversation turned to Saudi Arabia, Neves surprised many by bypassing Ronaldo entirely, instead singling out Félix, a former Chelsea and Barcelona star.
“Saudi League? For me right now, the magical player is João Félix,” Neves stated.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, has continued to deliver strong performances in the Saudi top-flight league since joining Al-Nassr a few years ago.
