After a lot of speculation that Cristiano Ronaldo will leave Real Madrid before the end of the transfer window, there appears to be no resolution in sight. It was only recently reported that Ronaldo had agreed a new five-year contract with Real Madrid, but the Portuguese star claimed that no deal had been agreed. This has once again intensified rumours that he will leave the club, but manager Carlo Ancelotti has once again stressed that the 28-year-old will remain as a Real Madrid player. President Florentino Perez has stated on several occasions that Ronaldo will spend the rest of his career at the Santiago Bernabeu.

However, he has only two years left on his contract and there are rumours surrounding his future. He has been linked with a return to Manchester United, while French club PSG are also monitoring the situation. Ancelotti was speaking at the pre-season tour in the United States. He has said that the process of preparing a new contract and offering into a player is the responsibility of the club. As a manager, though, he believes that the player will stay at the club because he feels happy. Ronaldo has been enjoying one of the best spells of his careers. He has managed to become the fastest player in Real Madrid’s history to score 150 goals.

“The player wants to renew his contract and the club want him to renew it too, so I don’t think it’s going to be a problem. I think Cristiano and the club are relaxed about the issue. I don’t know when it will happen, but I am certain that Cristiano is going to renew his contract with Madrid. We are playing a match against a strong team, not against Mourinho. For us, it’s very important that we play well and give our all. We have to try and improve our fitness too, because the season starts soon,” said Ancelotti.

Former Real Madrid manager José Mourinho has revealed that he enjoyed a good relationship with Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo until the final months of his Real Madrid career. Ronaldo has progressed to an incredible level since moving to Real Madrid. He has scored more than a goal per game during the regime of José Mourinho. However, it is widely thought that the pair fell out with each other during the final days of Mourinho’s regime at the Santiago Bernabeu. The 50-year-old has hinted that it may be the case after he criticised Ronaldo for failing to stick with his tactics.

Ronaldo, in turn, is thought to have criticised Mourinho for his defensive tactics, which have failed to help the club win any titles last season. Mourinho, though, defended his record by saying that Ronaldo has possibly enjoyed the best spell of his career. The 28-year-old attacker is widely linked with a move away from Real Madrid after stating at the start of the last season that he was unhappy at the club. The Spanish club’s president Florentino Perez, however, has said that he will do everything within his power to keep Ronaldo at the Spanish capital.

Ronaldo is set to be offered a new deal by Real Madrid in the next few weeks.

“I had only one problem with him, very simple, very basic, which was when a coach criticises a player from a tactical viewpoint trying to improve what in my view could have been improved. And at that moment he didn’t take it very well because maybe he thinks he knows everything and the coach cannot help him to develop more. Cristiano has had three fantastic seasons with me. I don’t know if they were the best of his career because he had some fantastic moments with Manchester United,” said Mourinho.

The Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has said that the 3-1 victory for his club in the recent match against Barcelona gives them a lot of confidence going into the last 16 Champions League match against Manchester United. Real Madrid will be coming into this encounter on the back of the 1-1 draw in the first leg, which puts them at a disadvantage after having conceded the away goal. However, the impressive 3-1 win over one of the best teams in the world – Barcelona – in the Copa del Rey gives Ronaldo and his teammates a lot of confidence according to the Portuguese.

Ronaldo was once again at his imperious best in the match, as he helped Real Madrid knock Barcelona out of the competition. The Portuguese scored the first goal for Real Madrid in the match, as he helped them win the tie 4-2 on aggregate. The Camp Nou has been one of the difficult away grounds for teams in the last few years due to the imperious form of Barcelona. Even Real Madrid have suffered a number of demoralising defeats in recent years, but they managed to come out on the strong side following this important victory. Ramos, though, has said that the team should not relax ahead of the match with United.

“This gives us a lot of confidence,” said the 27-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo after the Barcelona triumph. “I hope this can be the start of a favorable gust of wind, because we have some key games ahead of us. Next week we play a game at Old Trafford that is one of the most important of the season and there is no doubt this [result] has to help us,” said the director Emilio Butragueno. Madrid have lost any hope of catching Barcelona in the league due to their 16 point deficit.
