Salah and I are not on same level ―Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo has dismissed comparisons of him and Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.

Salah has had a great season and has been compared to Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and as the Portuguese star gets set to face his Egyptian counterpart in the final of the Champions League on Saturday, Ronaldo has knocked back the comparisons, saying they both completely different players.

“We are completely different. People want to compare me with other players but I’m different from everyone,” Ronaldo said, as reported by Metro.

“He is completely different. He plays with the left, I play with the right. I’m tall he’s a little bit shorter, I play with the head.

“Salah is different but I have to say he has had a fantastic Champions League a fantastic league season, but Saturday, let’s see.”

Both players have enjoyed blistering European seasons, with Ronaldo leading the way in the goal-scoring charts.

Salah’s incredible debut season at Liverpool – winning both PFA Player of the Year and FWA Footballer of the Year – has seen his name drawn in the same breath as the likes of Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
