The suspense is building. Fans worldwide are counting the days to see Cristiano Ronaldo become the most-subscribed YouTuber, eclipsing MrBeast. Ronaldo, notably took only 12 hours to amass more than 10 million subscribers, whereas the American influencer took more than 100 days. Surprisingly, one of MrBeast’s co-streamers has given a tip for Ronaldo to double or even triple his YouTube channel’s growth. And the streamer thinks CR7 should invite his generational rival Lionel Messi to ensure such humongous growth for his channel UR Cristiano. 

Ibai Illanos is a familiar name to soccer fans. The Twitch streamer has famously shaken hands with Gerard Pique to promote his Kings League project. The Spanish streamer is a familiar name on YouTube, as he has time and again collaborated with MrBeast, while the latter embarked on doing content with the world’s famous streamers. Now, CR7 has 40 million subscribers at the moment and MrBeast has over 230 million subscribers, so Ronaldo has a long way to go to take the top spot. Well, Llanos insists that Cristiano Ronaldo should call Lionel Messi to join him in an episode on his YouTube channel.

“The planet will break when Cristiano Ronaldo Dos Santos Aveiro brings Lionel Andrés Messi as a guest. At that moment, gentlemen, the world will break,” said Illanos while reacting to Ronaldo’s videos via Twitch, as compiled by MeriStation AS.

The Spanish streamer then stressed that Ronaldo and Messi are on great terms, even though they don’t speak to each other very often. “I sincerely believe that Messi and Cristiano have a good relationship, a cordial relationship. Without a doubt, it would be a highly anticipated meeting among most football fans,” Ibai Illanos added. Now that Illanos has sparked a conversation about Ronaldo and Messi crossing paths once again, let’s see what the Al Nassr star had once said about spending time with the Inter Miami star off the field.

Will Cristiano Ronaldo be up for hanging out with Messi?

Yes. For nearly a decade, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi went against each other like warriors on a battlefield. The media and fans still hail their rivalry as the greatest soccer has ever seen. Yet, Ronaldo couldn’t help but crave having a dinner with Leo Messi, at some point in their lives. The Al Nassr skipper first spoke about this hangout plan in a famous interview taken during the 2020 FIFA The Best Awards. Thereafter, the 5x-Ballon d’Or winner reiterated during Piers Morgan’s infamous interview that he still wants to dine out with the Argentine world champion.

Last year, CR7 hailed Messi’s strong start in the MLS. He asserted he too has been able to shine in the Saudi Pro League. After speaking about the deadly duo’s ace displays in the twilight of their careers, Ronaldo declared that his rivalry with Messi was over. So, it is not beyond the two football icons to finally come together and give fans a special treat. Now that CR7 is seriously building his YouTube channel, he could easily consider inviting La Pulga on his platform to deliver fans with the biggest blockbuster yet.
