For the launch of the Champions League season this Tuesday, with a nice Real Madrid - Marseille on the schedule, Canal+ decided to ask the participating players who their childhood idol was.

Here's a recap of the answers, there are some great ones!

Rayan Cherki (Manchester City): Cristiano Ronaldo

Lucas Chevalier (PSG): Michel Bastos

Eliesse Ben Seghir (Monaco): Ronaldinho

Serhou Guirassy (Dortmund): Karim Benzema

Nayef Aguerd (Marseille): Alessandro Nesta and Paolo Maldini

Malo Gusto (Chelsea): Ronaldinho

LoĂŻs Openda (Juventus): Didier Drogba

Sacha Boey (Bayern Munich): Kyle Walker

Morgan Sanson (Nice): Andres Iniesta

Ramy BensebaĂŻni (Dortmund): Sergio Ramos

Some classic choices for many, with two Ronaldinhos notably, but no Lionel Messi! We didn't necessarily expect Walker and Michel Bastos either.

And you, who was your idol when you started following football? Tell us in the comments ⬇️
