We`ll Never Give Up On Ronaldo


Real Madrid say they'll never give up trying to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United.

The rumour mill linking the Portuguese superstar with a move to the Santiago Bernabeu has been in full swing for the last year.

And some reports last week claimed the Spanish giants were willing to splash out a world-record £50million to land him in the summer.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has described the constant speculation as "nonsense", while chief executive David Gill says the club have no intention of selling their star player.

But Real's sporting director Predrag Mijatovic clearly isn't put off by those statements.

He told The Sun: "Ronaldo is an exceptional footballer and, although we know signing a player like that is very complicated, we will just have to keep working on it.

"If one day a chance opens up, then we will be there trying to sign him. He'd grace any team in the world."

Ronaldo has been in stunning form for United this season, and currently tops the Premier League scoring charts with 16 goals in just 17 starts.
