Meanwhile, Chelsea’s heavy recruitment since Todd Boehly took over the club had them sign Manchester City academy graduate, Cole Palmer, for £42.5 million – a move proving to be a bargain.

“The obvious one, Messi. Because of the way he plays and everything he’s won, all the individual awards he has won. Just the best player ever… Messi is clear for me,” Palmer said.
Palmer’s most recent success was his hat-trick to rescue all three points for the Blues in their Premier League clash against Manchester United on April 4.
Despite struggling for consistent results, Mauricio Pochettino’s charges have mustered some impressive wins although they remain 10th on the EPL standings.

Sports Brief also previously reported on Ronaldo settling the GOAT debate with Messi after declaring the rivalry between him and the Argentine over at a Portugal press conference, after 15 years.
Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland are strong contenders to take over the mantle from the veterans, with the Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain stars destined for future Ballon d’Or glory.
