Ronaldo believes that Thuram can make the difference against PSG in the Champions League final on Saturday.
He said: “I didn't see all the matches this year, only the most important, but the last Champions League match in San Siro was enough for me: he seemed the striker who would like another striker close to him.
“I played against his father, an incredible defender: he must have passed on him a bit of his mentality. Someone who plays like Marcus would have let me score many goals.”
Best coach in the world who joins the largest team in the world
On Carlo Ancelotti who takes the lead on Brazil, Ronaldo also told Il Gazzetta Dello Sport: “Curiosity, Anticipation. Perhaps the best coach in the world in the largest national team in the world.
“Perhaps in my time it would have been impossible to see a foreigner on Brazil's couch, but times have changed, football is even more worldwide and then Ancelotti is not just a foreigner …
“I wish him the best, he has already understood how many people will love him, but we must give him the right time to manage a new reality: the goal is the World Cup 2026.”
