In an interview with 90Min, Casillas selected former Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos ahead of other ex-teammates like Roberto Carlos, Xabi Alonso, Kaká, Luka Modric, Raúl, and Luís Figo before opting for Zidane.
Nevertheless, when it came to choosing between Zidane and Ronaldo, Casillas favored Ronaldo.
During the 90Min video, Casillas picked Sergio Ramos over names such as Roberto Carlos, Xabi Alonso, Kaká, Modric, Raúl, and Luís Figo before selecting Zidane.
However, when asked to choose between Zidane and Ronaldo, the legendary shot-stopper ultimately chose the former Manchester United player.
Casillas said via goal: “These things happen in stages, Cristiano sells a lot, and demands a lot of himself. Along with Lionel Messi he is the best in the world. He has this responsibility.
“As a Madridista, sometimes you don’t understand why it can happen. Six months ago Madrid were European champions, one month ago they were world champions.
“He has just won the trophy as the world’s best player. Last year I remember a difficult moment before [Rafa] Benitez left. Then at the end of the season they were in the clouds with the Champions League. If he scores two or three goals a game, that is just what he is supposed to do. It is madness.
“You must help him – have people around him and the club who help to protect the players. He must continue trying to be the player he is, the best in the world.”
