‘Ronaldo causes more problems than Ibra’

Malmo captain Markus Rosenberg rates Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic on the same level ahead of facing the Real Madrid man.

Madrid have travelled to Sweden for the Champions League fixture and captain Rosenberg has spoken to AS about the game, including a discussion on the value of the Portuguese forward after a local publication claimed Ronaldo was worth 92 of him.

“That’s probably right. At least! It depends, if we talk about salary, even more,” Rosenberg replied in jest.

“If we talk about speed, not so much…Seriously though, he’s a fantastic player. He’s scored more than 300 goals for Madrid. He’s an amazing striker.”

Rosenberg has seen Ibrahimovic up close for the Sweden national team and was asked to compare his compatriot with Ronaldo.

“Together with Messi they are the three best in the world. They’re different and perhaps Cristiano is the most difficult for us to stop,” Rosenberg considered.

“He plays at an enormous level. If you see the PSG-Malmo game from the first round, Zlatan had a lot of chances, but I think Cristiano will give us more problems.”
