Former Liverpool full-back Jose Enrique has named Cristiano Ronaldo as the toughest opponent he ever faced in the Premier League, but added that the Juventus star is the “second best in the world” behind Lionel Messi.
Enrique, a cult hero at both Newcastle and Anfield from his time in England, has gone on to become a football agent since hanging up his boots, but not before having played against some of the biggest names in the game.
As such, the former defender was asked to name the best player he ever came up against during his playing days in the Premier League.
