The American made his bold pick on the greatest of all-time debate.
Johnny Cardoso has gone from zero to hero since signing for Real Betis in the January transfer window and has undoubtedly become one of the best new signings in LaLiga.
The 22-year-old midfielder has made himself one of the club’s most important players after just half a season and has garnered attention from fans and the media following his continuous stellar performances.

The USMNT player recently sat down with highly-renowned Spanish soccer TV show ‘El Chiringuito’ and talked about all things surrounding his personal life. Cardoso was asked about his life preferences, hobbies, favorite dishes and quizzed on everyone’s favorite question: “Who is the best player of all time?”
Johnny Cardoso — “Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player in history.”
Yes, he said it.
After being asked who the best player of all time was and with a short pause, Johnny revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo was, in his opinion, the greatest soccer player in history.
Johnny’s 1st L ever since he moved to Spain…
I am afraid Cristiano Ronaldo is not even top 3 of all time.

He picked the greatest goalscorer of all time.
Johnny, who was raised and lived practically all of his life in Brazil, must’ve certainly cheered on Ronaldo when he constantly battled against country-rival Argentina’s Lionel Messi.
