After Kylian Mbappé, Rayan Cherki is surely the most talented French player. Long labeled as a future eternal hope, despite his very young age (21), the Lyonnais has little by little silenced the criticism and gnashing of teeth, to reap a plethora of praise. This season, he has scored five goals and provided seven assists, and sometimes gives the impression of being simply untouchable.
But then, what could have changed between the previous seasons and the current one? Well already, age and maturity, obviously, but also the example he decided to follow, and which is none other than Cristiano Ronaldo. « I had plenty of idols, but the best, the one everyone takes their example from, is Cristiano. In relation to his work, his longevity, this is what we must take as an example. “, he confided to the microphone of Telefoot.
