Default Cristiano Ronaldo to Madrid?? Will He or Won't he??

Don't know how many of you have been following the saga of Cristiano Ronaldo over the last couple weeks, but it's getting to comedic levels right now.

These are all articles that I have found within the last 3-4 hours

Real Madrid boss saying that getting him is impossible

Being Portuguese, I don't really care where he goes, but I do like what he has become at Man U and he could be an absolute legend for arguably the biggest franchise on the planet. But having said that, being a legend at Real isn't a kick in the junk either.

Having said that, I wish he would come out publicly and put this crap to bed and focus on Euro and deal with this after they lift the trophy at the end of June. And they will. I have said this to many of my friends, after the season he had at Man U, 42 goals, Premiership title, Champs league title, if he were to lead Portugal to their first ever major tournament win, you can start putting him in the same breath with the legends of the game. Not Pele, Maradona or Zidane status, but right below with in the second tier. And to boot, he's only 23!!!!
