Real Madrid captain Ramos dismisses Salah: He's no Ronaldo

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has dismissed claims of Liverpool star Mohamed Salah being on the same level as Cristiano Ronaldo.

The pair will come face to face in Kiev's NSC Olimpiyskiy Stadium on Saturday for the Champions League final, but Ramos had a word of advice for Liverpool's Egypt international.

"Comparing players with Ronaldo and Messi is something you can't do," said Ramos.

"They're in another orbit. There are players who are in fashion, those who come and go and others who stay around.

"Salah is a top player, that's clear. He's shown that this year and he's got a great chance to show that over the next few years as Ronaldo and Messi have done - but the day after tomorrow!"
