Fernando Torres: Ronaldo is incomparable

Table of Contents

Fernando Torres believes Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is 'in a class of his own' when it comes to deciding the world's best player.

The pair are both on the 23-man shortlist for the FIFA World Player of the Year award, with the winner to be announced in January.

However, the Liverpool striker has suggested Ronaldo should win the award after his 42 goals last season helped fire United to European and domestic glory.

"No-one can rival him," the Spaniard told France Football. "He is in a class of his own. I have never seen a comparable player.

"What he did last season is incredible. No-one won this year what he's won: Champions League, Premier League and Golden Boot.

"For me he is the best player in the world. A machine. Incomparable."
