Messi says his not keen to battle with Christiano Ronaldo over the best player

The Barcelona talisman has landed five Ballons d'Or in his career but insists that he has never been driven by the pursuit of individual honours
Barcelona talisman Lionel Messi claims to have no interest in being considered “the best in history”, with no motivation taken from a personal battle with Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
Over the course of a distinguished career, the mercurial Argentina has edged his way up the pecking order of all-time greats.
Many consider him to have reached the very top of that chart, with few players able to match his achievements – with a remarkable roll of honour including nine La Liga titles, four Champions League crowns, five Ballons d’Or and 552 goals for Barcelona.
