Two Ronaldo's are in the conversation when discussing the best footballers in history.

Ronaldo Nazario was absolutely breathtaking after breaking onto the scene with PSV as a 17-year-old.

He went on to have great success with the likes of Barcelona, Inter Milan and Real Madrid.

Unfortunately for Ronaldo, injuries meant his time at the very top of the game wasn't as long as it should have been. But he was extraordinary at his peak.

The Brazilian retired in 2011 but another Ronaldo is still among the very best players in the world.

Cristiano Ronaldo has won five Ballon d'Or titles in an incredible career which has seen him play for Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus.

But who is the better Ronaldo? Given their names, that's a question that has been debated and will be debated for many years.

Everyone will have an opinion on who they think is better. As a bit of fun, we've used FIFA 21 stats to answer that very question.

We've compared the stats of Ronaldo Nazario's mid Icon card with Cristiano Ronaldo's gold rare card using FutHead.

You can view who comes out on top when the 29 in-game attributes are compared.
