Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is ready to instruct
his agents to drop all plans of engineering a move to Real Madrid,
it has been revealed.
Ronaldo has told team-mates that he intends to stay even if Real
come calling again this summer, says The Times.
The Portugal forward has appeared to be pining for Madrid since
his “dream” move was blocked by Ferguson last summer, but, even if
his petulant reaction to his substitution on Sunday seemed to be
that of a disillusioned player, Ronaldo is believed to be leaning
towards staying in Manchester for one more year.
Ronaldo’s mood has been known to fluctuate with the city’s
weather, but if, as it seems, he is willing to stay at Old
Trafford, his histrionics will be tolerated — within reason — if he
can continue to drive United to further success in the Champions
League and the Premier League.
