Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has
pleaded the club's innocence after the speculation over Cristiano
Ronaldo's future at Manchester United took another
twist.
On Tuesday, United threatened to report Real to Fifa if the
Primera Division champions continued to pursue their attempted
capture of Ronaldo in an 'unacceptable fashion'.
The Portugal international's future at Old Trafford has been in
doubt in recent weeks with various Real officials publicly speaking
about their interest in Ronaldo.
However, the Red Devils have vehemently denied that they will be
losing the PFA Player of the Year this summer.
Real have now moved to ease the growing tension
between the two clubs, but do insist that the problem lies between
United and the player.
"We haven't done, nor will we do anything against the wishes of
a club that we consider a friend like Manchester United," Calderon
said on the club's official website.
"Our relationship with Manchester is magnificent and we will not
do anything that would violate the will of a team, just as we would
not like that done to us.
"We know Manchester doesn't want to sell and we have nothing to
say. It's a problem between the player and his team."
