"Yes, I'm a Cristiano Ronaldo fan and there's a very simple reason: because it's not easy to be handsome and a good footballer", the singer stated at an exclusive media event to launch his new album in Mexico City, to which dpa were invited.

"It's not easy to have his drive to train hard, be strong and score goals while people are falling over themselves saying, "He's so handsome." No, but that's the way God made him", Iglesias went on.

The legendary Spanish performer was a promising goalkeeper at Real Madrid as a teenager,
"I like Messi, I like Neymar… I like all the top players. I like Chicharito too, for example. He has his own brand of magic".
