Drake dropped his much anticipated fifth studio album 'Scorpion' on Friday. Football fans were quick to pick up on the fact that the lyrics in his track 'Blue Tint' mention a certain footballer named Cristiano Ronaldo.
The line "Way this sh*t set up I live like Ronaldo, but I never been to Madrid" features in the first verse of the song. Soon CR7 fans reacted to this across social media.
Many fans pointed out (of course with a sense of humour) that this may well be the end of the biggest debate in football right now - who is the greatest of all time aks GOAT between Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Once I heard Drake name drop Ronaldo, it was over. GOAT.

Drake is big football fans having previous worn football jerseys on stage and forged friendships with many players including Paul Pogba, Neymar, Mario Balotelli, and Mesut Ozil to name just a few.
But it's Real Madrid icon CR7 who he's shouted out, mentioning the Portugal captain's lavish lifestyle.
