Still before the beginning of the Euro-2008, in the beginning of June, already the athletic press was speculating on the future of Cristiano Ronaldo. One month after, the situation was been altered little or nothing . The athletic Spanish newspaper of reference, "Marca", writes today in the first page that Real Madrid " already has money " to buy what is considered by many people as the best player of the world.
The club 'meringue ' will have, suposedly, guaranteed a loan for 70 million euros from a bank institution to acquire Ronaldo's pass. The same newspaper guarantees that Ronaldo will go to Madrid.
Another Spanish magazine, "As" reveals today supposed declarations of Ramón Calderón, president of Really Madrid, to the plantel madridista. The leader moved to the Algarve, where the team is doing a traineeship, and reassured the football players with the next sentence: " Cristiano arrives shortly. "
Meantime, north in the European continent, the English fans look to be losing his patience with all East around Ronaldo. In a friendly play between Manchester United and the Aberdeen, in last Saturday, was possible to read a poster that was saying " Ronaldo slave, out! ". This in allusion to the recent declarations of Joseph Blatter, president of the FIFA, who compared Ronaldo's case with " modern slavery ".
Who also seems to be against the agreements with Ronaldo's possible change for the Spanish capital is Sneijder, one of the stars of Really Madrid. The international Dutchman showed to the newspaper that it might be bad for the team if Ronaldo integrated the plantel meringue.
" It would be bad for the team that he had a salary very much lifted up regarding the companions. I would not mind, but I know that others were not going to like that. Here we players like him for example Robben or Robinho ", affirmed the international Dutch player.
However, Sneijder finished by confessing what he wanted " to play with Ronaldo, though we have to maintain the balance in the team".
As all that was not enough, the Spanish press insisted again, in the last days, that the family Glazer, holder of Manchester United,is ready to negociate the player. Real Madrid, which never hid the wish of counting on Cristiano Ronaldo in his plantel, is ready to spend nearly 85 million euros to 'rescue' the player to the English champions, which can be the biggest nightmare of the trainer Alex Ferguson.
Up to the 31st of August, day in which it shuts in the period of transfer of football players, everything can happen.
