Cristiano Ronaldo
signed a new five-year deal with Real Madrid in November that helped him become
the best-paid athlete in the world.
But now a source close to the player now
says he "doesn't want to stay in Spain" because he is
"upset" after being accused of tax fraud in the country.
Ronaldo, 32, joined Madrid from
Manchester United for a then world-record £80million in 2009.
The Portugal legend has scored a
club-record 406 goals in his 394 appearances for Real.
Only two weeks ago, he helped Zinedine
Zidane's side win a 12th European Cup with two goals in a 4-1 victory over
Juventus in the Champions League final in Cardiff.
Will that turn out to be his last
appearance for Los Merengues? Where could he go? And what would Madrid do
without him?
Maybe he's just upset. Maybe it is
something he said in a moment when he's really angry. We don't know yet. He's
been happy here, he helped us to win three Champions Leagues over the past four
years, so I hope he will stay.
But, if he's made his mind up, I don't
think it's going to be easy to change. He's very strong-minded and clear in
what he wants. If he leaves I don't see him in a place like China or the Middle
East. He will be always playing for a big club and trying to get more titles
and more personal awards.
He's a fighter and he's in good shape.
He can play again for the best club and I think that club now is Real Madrid. I
can't tell you what he's doing but I hope he will stay, I'm sure he'll stay
