Cristiano Ronaldo is leaving Old Trafford

After months of speculation, ungainly answers and avoiding questions, Manchester United have accepted an £80(94 million €) million offer from Real Madrid for Cristiano Ronaldo.

As the official website of Manchester United has announced, the English champions accepted the world record 94 million € offer from Real Madrid, for Portuguese star.
Following assurances from the Old Trafford club to the decision was mostly contributed by Ronaldo himself, after he repeatedly expressed a desire to continue a football career in Madrid.Manchester United expects the trade to be made by the end of the month and says they'll make no more comment.

FIFAs World Footballer of the Year 2008 transfer to Real Madrid is the record one in all aspects, since it is beating the previous record, also set by Real Madrid who paid 73 million€ in 2001 for Zinedine Zidane transfer from Juventus to Real by a 22 million €.

The Spanish newspaper La Rezon has also published details of six year contract, according which Cristiano Ronaldo will yearly receive 9.5m Euros a year - after tax, which is s8m, or s155k a week, and 40% of his image rights.

It is the first time for several years Man United would have allowed a player to leave they weren't happy about losing.

SOCCER 2009 - UEFA Champions League Final - Barcelona Dazzles Manchester United 2-0
Barcas coach Josep Guardiola has once more demonstrated his extensive knowledge of football and showed why they are called by many the best team in the world this season.Manchester United started the game surprisingly open and offensive, but in the opening 10 minutes, they failed to score,especially Ronaldo began the game looking as if he wanted to win the match single-handed and earned a free-kick after only 90 seconds, but Park Ji-Sung's follow up was pushed across for a corner. In moments of greatest pressure from United, however, Barcelona has conducted the first serious attack, which was effectively finished by Samuel Eto'o.

Cameroon's Samuel Eto'o provided the first goal for Barcelona, in the 10th minute, he danced past defender Nemanja Vidic and fired a shot from close range that went in off the hand of Manchester United's Dutch goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar........and the rest, as they say, is history.

Usain Bolt named Cristiano Ronaldo a “wuss”

Usain Bolt addresses Cristiano Ronaldo a wuss who had better copy Wayne Rooney.
The Jamaican sprinter said that Ronaldo needed to be more alike his team-mate team-mate Wayne Rooney if he wants to improve.He also criticised the Ronaldo's tendency to "fall over" on the pitch and said the trouble was his running technique.

Bolt, who gained a reputation as the fastest human on globe after winning the Olympic 100 m and 200 m sprints in record breaking time in Beijing China last year, is visiting Manchester following month to provide the Manchester United team some running advices.


22 year old Jamaican, said:
“The first thing I’m going to tell him: stop acting like a wuss.
“Seriously, because the fact why his game is kind of down right now is because these guys are picking on him because he’s so soft. No one in football will try it with Rooney. Ronaldo’s got to be a little like Rooney, he’s got to be aggressive, then these guys will stop picking on him. If Ronaldo’s aggressive back to these guys, and gets a few red cards, people will stop picking on him.”
