The Real Madrid attacker has stated that Manchester United still hold a significant place in his heart and he would never join the Citizens.
The summer of 2009 saw one of the greatest transfers saga see an end as Real Madrid whooped the signing of Manchester United winger http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 for a world record fee.
The Portuguese ace joined the Manchester outfit back in 2003 and after an immensely successful 7 year stint at the Old Trafford based club, Ronaldo finally sealed a move to his boyhood dream club.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 had previously led United to unprecedented success in his time with the English giants. The most notable year which was a real highlight of Ronaldo’s success at United was the 2007-2008 season. The Portuguese smashed almost every individual record
in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 that season as his insurmountable tally of 42 goals from a midfield position led United to a Continental double.
Manchester United were first crowned the champions of the Barclays Premier League for the 2nd consecutive year before also being crowned the champions of the prestigious UEFA Champions League.
Ronaldo scored the opener in the showpiece event at Moscow against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Petr-Cech-c29837 ball watching.
Following Ronaldo’s departure, many gestures of mutual respect have been shared between both Ronaldo and the Manchester United gaffer, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson and it seems in-evitable that the Portuguese sensation will one day make a long awaited return to the
stadium where he won so many hearts.
Ronaldo had also been linked with Manchester City for a big money move but the Portuguese has calmed such speculation by stating that he would never join the reigning English champions.
"To play for City not United? I’m not going to do that. Why? Because my heart’s in Manchester United, that’s why," Ronaldo told The Sun. "I can say it would be very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very difficult to play at Manchester
City. Very difficult because of Manchester United."
"I am a player of Real Madrid and I’m happy here, my family is happy and everything is going well for me here. The future? I don’t know — only God knows the future," Ronaldo said. "I can’t say I’m never going back to Man United — but I can say I’m good here
and I want to be here.”
Real Madrid and Manchester United come face to face on Wednesday night for their UEFA Champions League clash of last 16.
