Grammy Award-winning singer Burna Boy has named Nigeria's duo of Austin Jay-Jay Okocha and Victor Osimhen, along with Brazilian legend Ronaldinho, as his top three greatest footballers of all time.

The music icon disclosed this on Complex GOAT Talk with tennis legend Roger Federer.

The retired tennis superstar and the Nigerian music star debated on the best things they've experienced — from GOAT car to GOAT watch, and even GOAT childhood crush.

Speaking on his GOAT soccer player, Burna Boy named Ronaldinho alongside Okocha and Osimhen, while also acknowledging the greatness of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

“Ohh, GOAT soccer player… it is going to get sticky. It is kind of unfair though, what they [Messi and Ronaldo] do. Well, my GOAT soccer player is Jay-Jay Okocha, Osimhen, and Ronaldinho.”

Federer, on the other hand, mentioned Diego Maradona, Zinedine Zidane, and Thierry Henry as his greatest soccer players.
