Rooney also stated that it is nearly impossible for both Haaland and Mbappe to replicate the careers of Messi and Ronaldo.
Speaking on Sports18, Rooney said, “Haaland and Mbappe, of course, the next two, at this moment of time, they’re obviously better than Messi and Ronaldo.
“But for them to emulate the career that Messi and Ronaldo have had, I can’t see it.”
The former England international added, “What Messi and Ronaldo have done is unique in the world of football.
“For Messi and Ronaldo to do it at the same time in the same league for a long time, I don’t think we will see that again.”

Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, has insisted that Lionel Messi is not the best footballer in history.
Ancelotti stated this during a press conference on Thursday.
According to him, there have been many greats like Diego Maradona, Alfredo Di Stefano and Johann Cruyff, who have played the game.
He said: “Messi the best in history? He’s a great player but I can’t say who’s been the best.
“There have been so many wonderful players… Maradona, Di Stéfano, Cruyff.. I don’t know.”
Messi is being widely regarded as the greatest of all time (GOAT), after he ‘completed’ football by winning the 2022 World Cup with Argentina.
