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.
