Cristiano Ronaldo and Virat Kohli, two of the most popular stars in football and cricket, are arguably the best athletes of our time. While it's not clear how well Ronaldo knows Kohli, the Indian star's admiration for the Portuguese superstar is well-known. Kohli is a fan of Ronaldo's work ethic, diet, and dedication to the game. Now, these two are set to face each other in a YouTube talk show!

A picture has surfaced from Kohli's IPL franchise, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), showing the two sitting together and talking. This graphic was shared on RCB's social media handle on X (formerly Twitter), similar to what is seen on Ronaldo's YouTube channel. Ronaldo has been seen in multiple videos with his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and former French footballer Rio Ferdinand, sitting on a sofa and chatting.

In the picture posted by RCB, the two global sports icons, Kohli and Ronaldo, are seen sitting face-to-face on a sofa. This suggests that Kohli might be appearing as a guest on Ronaldo's YouTube channel. The caption reads, "Virat Kohli x Cristiano Ronaldo = GOAT Square. Dare to miss this? This collab will set the internet on fire."

Many have commented on RCB's post, expressing their desire to watch the episode. The most viewed video on Ronaldo's YouTube channel so far has 47 million views. If Kohli indeed appears as a guest, it is sure to attract a huge number of views. It remains to be seen whether Ronaldo's channel or RCB's platform will host such a talk show and if it will indeed set the internet ablaze!

Earlier, at the beginning of the last week of August, the Al-Nassr star invited fans to his YouTube channel, which was launched on July 8 this year. After a fresh call for subscriptions, the response was overwhelming. Initially named 'UR', the channel has now been renamed 'UR Cristiano' or 'Your Cristiano'. Within 90 minutes of the announcement, the channel gained 1 million subscribers, setting a new milestone for the fastest 1 million subscribers on YouTube, according to Forbes. The number of followers has skyrocketed to 54.5 million in just ten days. 

So far, 18 videos have been uploaded to the channel. Ronaldo has shared various aspects of his personal life, including family, nutrition, preparation, injury rehabilitation, education, and business.
