Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly signed a new
five-year deal with Real Madrid worth £75million
to keep him at the club for the rest of his career.
The Portugal forward had been linked with an
emotional return to Manchester United but seems to
have settled his differences with the La Liga
giants.
But he will instead hope to link up with Gareth
Bale should the Wales star complete his protracted,
world-record move from Tottenham.
Madrid-based newspaper Marca reports that
Ronaldo will earn around £900,000 more each
season than Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi,
making him the highest-paid player in Spain.
The 28-year-old is believed to have struck a deal
with Real to increase his share of his image rights,
which previously stood at 60 per cent.
Ronaldo, who cost Madrid £80million in 2009, met
with club president Florentino Perez in Los Angeles
and the pair ironed out their differences. The
former United and Sporting Lisbon player had
remained coy on his future at a press conference
over the weekend.
‘The situation still hasn’t been resolved and I don’t
think now is the right time to talk about it,’ he
said.
‘Perhaps we’ll be able to give more concrete news
about this further down the line but now the only
thing in my remit is to train and work.’
