Brazilian superstar Neymar selected two former Manchester United players as part of his creation of the perfect footballer.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward is widely recognised as one of the best players in the world and a core member of his club side, as well as at international level with Brazil.
The former Barcelona man also fronts a yearly five-a-side competition alongside Red Bull, called Five, and has been speaking ahead of the latest edition.
Among the questions was how he would create the perfect footballer and it earned two former United players a mention in Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
"Oh man…the perfect player?! [Should I consider myself or not?] I can consider myself, good," he replied. "I think the physicality of Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimović’s elasticity, the heading game of Sergio Ramos, Mbappe’s speed, left leg of Messi, my right foot, Lewandowski’s positioning, the tackling of Kanté and the creation in the middle field of Verratti."
Ronaldo made his name at United before a trophy-laden stint with Real Madrid. Now at Juventus, Ronaldo's future beyond this season could be cast into doubt if the Bianconeri fail to secure Champions League football next season. They currently sit in fifth place going into the final weekend of the Serie A campaign.

Meanwhile, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is shining with AC Milan, with the Swedish forward at the club for the third time - though his first spell was a loan prior to making a move permanent.
His stint at United was brief but he still managed to make an impression, scoring 17 goals in 33 Premier League appearances.
