Real Madrid star
Cristiano Ronaldo says
Sir Alex Ferguson knew he
couldn't keep him at Manchester
United last summer.
Discussing his meeting with Ferguson after deciding it was time
to leave Old Trafford, Ronaldo
says he was upfront with his former manager.
He said: "The truth is that playing for Real was a dream. I told
Ferguson this and that he should respect my opinion. He understood
me and helped me out of United because I wanted something
different."
Asked about his Mum talking to the Spanish papers while he was
still a United player, Ronaldo
smiled: "What am I going to tell my mother? She is an impulsive
person and loves Real
Madrid."
