Cristiano Ronaldo says he would "attract more attention" than Beckham in Copacabana: "I'm perfect."

Cristiano Ronaldo 's self-esteem remains unshaken. In a new interview with journalist Piers Morgan, the Portuguese star answered a question about who would attract more attention on Copacabana beach, him or David Beckham, if they weren't famous. The striker, in fact, had no hesitation in his answer.

"Me. 100%. Even he (Beckham) knows that," the Al-Nassr player exclaimed.

The Portuguese player even went further in his justification, downplaying the appearance of the former English player. According to Cristiano Ronaldo, Beckham doesn't compare to him.

"His face is handsome, but the rest is just average," the star player quipped.

Then he added his personal assessment:

"I'm not normal, I'm perfect."

Piers Morgan's question actually used Copacabana beach as a hypothetical setting. Cristiano Ronaldo then analyzed the situation.

"It depends. I think it's not just about the face. It's the whole package," he said.

The striker, therefore, imagined himself in that situation.

"Imagine if I wasn't Cristiano, if I was just a normal guy in red swim trunks on Copacabana beach... Do you think I wouldn't have a chance?"

While the beauty comparison stirs up social media, the player is focused on his next commitment. Al-Nassr, CR7's team, returns to the field this Saturday (November 8th) at 10:50 AM (Brasilia time). The team faces Neom, away from home, in the Saudi Championship.
