The media outing made on Friday by Cristiano Ronaldo against Ligue 1 did not please Grégory Schneider at all. The journalist charged the Portuguese.
“ The Saudi League is not worse than Ligue 1. The Saudi Pro League is more competitive than Ligue 1, I can say that after a year there. We are already better than the French championship now. » It was in these terms that Cristiano Ronaldo spoke about Ligue 1 during the Globe Soccer Awards ceremony which took place on Friday. An astonishing charge, which some saw as a little hidden dig at Lionel Messi, but which in any case caused a lot of reaction.
At least in France, for example on the side of observers and Grégory Schneider. The journalist was present on the set of the channel The Team to discuss this media outing of the five-time Portuguese Ballon d’Or. And he didn’t mince his words. “ He is an ambassador. It’s his end-of-month check. He has the right to be faithful to it, but don’t say that. He gives an expert opinion, a footballer’s opinion? No. He gives an employee opinion. So let him say it and there won’t be any problems, but no one will interpret it the way I tell you. And that’s what’s disgusting. »
” This is unacceptable »
Up like a cuckoo, the man continued his remarks with a particularly scathing attack against CR7. “ That’s why what he’s doing is unacceptable. In fact, it’s prostitution. But let him say it! Let him say ‘Listen, I can’t tell you anything else’. » The reactions on the set being circumspect to say the least, Grégory Schneider did not give up and continued: “ I can say it, morning, noon and night. He says ‘listen I’m paid, I can’t tell you anything else’. And I understand it. Do you think I’m going to speak against my company? No. And that’s normal. But it must be seen with this decryption. »
