Ronaldo Real deal completed
-
ONE of the longest-running transfer sagas in recent football history is over after Real Madrid and Manchester United finalised the world-record transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo to the Bernabeu.
Madrid have been closely linked with the Portugal international for a number of seasons but they now seem to have got their man after putting pen to paper on the £80million transfer that had been agreed with United earlier this month.
A statement on Madrid's website, www.realmadrid.com, this evening read: “Real Madrid and Manchester United have signed a final agreement for the transfer of the rights of Cristiano Ronaldo from July 1.
“The player will be tied to Real Madrid for the next six seasons and will be presented on July 6 at the Santiago Bernabeu.”
United said on their website, www.manutd.com: “Cristiano Ronaldo's departure is all but done and dusted after Real Madrid and Manchester United finalised the agreement for his transfer on Friday evening.
“The Portuguese winger was the subject of a world record £80million offer from the Spanish club on Thursday 11 June. He has since been on holiday but a return to work with new employers now beckons, with the sale set to be completed on Wednesday 1 July.”
The deal for Ronaldo means Madrid will break the world record transfer fee for the fourth time - all sanctioned by president Florentino Perez. -
I rather prefer that the 80m pounds dosh, 40m to be paid immediately, the rest in 2 instalments of 20m per season, rather than 20m to be paid in 4 instalments.

Finally........

Finally, we had him to depart whereas his heart''s is no longer in ManUtd.
Remark : Whoever from BPL's team player go to R. M. will become nobody and left the team to longer 2 year ...... !
Good-luck ! Ron ....... !

wow the 80m cash, can buy quite a few players.
Utd only need 2-3 players, no need to buy so many players, as there are too many players sitting on the bench, Nani, Wellbeck, Scholes, Kiko etc.
if owen hargreaves is back before year end and start playing, have a fresh player in the heart of midfield. if he is still injury prone, time to go out and buy a new defensive midfielder like De Rossi.
