Cristiano Ronaldo has sparked lively debates among fans and pundits after revealing which football club he considers the greatest of all time.
Having played at the highest level across multiple continents and with a glittering career behind him, Ronaldo’s opinion carries significant weight.
In a recent interview, the Portuguese icon didn’t shy away from stating that, in his view, Real Madrid is the best football club in the world, not just today, but throughout the history of the game.

He brushed off suggestions that Real Madrid’s success was due to luck, firmly declaring the club’s dominance to be well-earned. With both La Liga and Champions League titles in hand, Real Madrid is poised for another strong season in 2024-25. Their squad, already packed with talent, has been further bolstered by the arrivals of Kylian Mbappé and Endrick—two of the most exciting young stars in football.
Under the leadership of veteran coach Carlo Ancelotti, the team aims to continue their winning ways in Europe. With six Champions League titles in the last decade, Real Madrid is once again a formidable contender, ready to build on their historic legacy.
In an interview with Rio Ferdinand on his YouTube channel, Ronaldo commented:
“Real Madrid are in excellent shape. They don’t crack under pressure, which is why some people say they’re lucky, but it’s not luck. They’re prepared for those moments. The Bernabeu has a special energy, and when big teams visit, they often feel the pressure, especially when Madrid scores late goals. For me, it’s the greatest club in football history.”
He added, “I always say Madrid will improve. With Mbappe now part of the team, they’ll remain strong, though I’m unsure if they’ll surpass last year’s performance. They have a fantastic squad and will undoubtedly be one of the world’s best teams.”
Ronaldo recently achieved another milestone by netting his 900th career goal during Portugal’s Nations League win against Croatia, further cementing his reputation as one of the sport’s most prolific goal-scorers.
