Ronaldo pencilled in for United talks
-
Cristiano Ronaldo's agents have confirmed the Manchester United winger is keen to sit down with the club to discuss a new deal at Old Trafford.
Real Madrid's pursuit of Ronaldo was one of the sagas of last summer, but he now appears keen on pledging his future to United after Sir Alex Ferguson won the battle to keep him.
Ronaldo, who is odds on favourite to be named both World and European Footballer of the Year later this season, has not yet held talks with the club but.
Gestiftute - ran by Jorge Mendes - have confirmed that a new deal is in the offing.
"It is normal, that a footballer wants a deal to go with his status and one that matches his performances on the field," a Gestifute spokesperson told Sky Sports' website.
"But nobody has prepared anything concrete.
"We want to avoid all these rumours in the press and will have contact with United."
Gestifute also confirmed that no set date for talks has been scheduled.
"We do predict a meeting with Manchester United to speak about the future of Ronaldo, but still there is not an exact date."
