Bayern Munich star Harry Kane was asked to pick between legendary forwards Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldo Nazario. In an interview with Front Three, the Englishman was presented with a host of legendary strikers and ended up backing the Brazilian.

When asked to choose between the two legends at first, he thought for a while before selecting the former Barcelona man. He ended up backing his choice throughout the rest of the picks, snubbing the likes of Luis Suarez, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Wayne Rooney and even himself.

Ronaldo, or R9 as he is fondly known, is a shining star in Brazil's glorious football history. He suited up for a variety of top clubs across Europe, including Barcelona, Real Madrid, AC Milan, and Inter Milan. Overall, he made 454 appearances throughout his career, scoring 298 goals and setting up 75 more.

Cristiano Ronaldo, meanwhile, has firmly established himself as one of the sport's greatest as well. Beginning his career with Sporting CP, he rose to fame at Manchester United before moving to Real Madrid in 2009. After a hugely successful decade with Los Blancos, he moved to Juventus and back to United before moving to Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. He has featured in over 1000 games in his career, bagging 757 goals and 238 assists.

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly requested his Al-Nassr side to seek a move for Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes. According to The Mirror, the Saudi Pro League side are willing to spend close to £90 million to bring the 29-year-old.

This comes after Fernandes expressed uncertainty over his future at the club. He had this to say following their Premier League win over Newcastle United:

“I will be here until… I said the club needs to want me. I feel that the club wants me to be a part of the future, so, as I said always, I don’t want to be a player that the club doesn’t want to have."
“If for some reason they don’t want to have me, I will go, but if they want me I will stay.”

Fernandes is one of Manchester United's most important players. He has bagged 15 goals and 12 assists this season and is the side's key creative force. He has played 232 games since his arrival, scoring 79 goals and setting up 65 more.

The addition of the attacking midfielder could be vital for Ronaldo's Al-Nassr side, who are set to finish second in the league two years in a row. Their title charge has been thwarted by an excellent Al-Hilal side who have gone unbeaten through 32 games.
