Brazilian Legend Ze Roberto Says He Has A 'Better Physique' Than Cristiano Ronaldo

Brazilian legend Ze Roberto believes he has a better physique than Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the nicest way possible, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner is an absolute specimen and still has the physical state of a 20-year old despite now being 35 years of age.

However, former Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid midfielder Ze Roberto thinks he's in even better shape and challenged Ronaldo to play into his 40s.

"Today I would say that I have a better physique, because I played until I was 43-years-old," he told Tyc Sports.

"If he does, I will say it is him."

The ex Selecao international definitely has a point. Aged 46, Ze Roberto is absolutely shredded and regularly posts videos and him working out relentlessly.

Ze Roberto had a 23-year long career in the game, turning out for a total of 10 clubs - including Real, Leverkusen, Bayern (twice) and Hamburg, as well as five clubs in his native Brazil.

He finished with Palmeiras in December 2017 and took up a role as a technical advisor at the club.
