Ronaldo wants Rooney at Madrid

Sat, 31 Oct 15:35:14 2009

Cristiano Ronaldo believes his former Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney should follow him to Real Madrid.

Ronaldo left Old Trafford in the summer for a record £80million fee to complete a dream move to the Spanish giants and, while admitting Rooney is unlikely to leave England any time soon, he thinks the striker would fit in at the Bernabeu.

"Wayne would be a sensation out here. I think we could do with Rooney to help us out," Ronaldo told The Sun. "He would be brilliant if he came. This is the ideal place for the world's best players and there's little doubt he is one of them."

He added: "Wayne has all the skill and determination you need to make a fine career here.

"He has shown just how good he is over the last few years in England.

"And there's no doubt he would be the same sort of player in Spain. It would be lovely to see him here one day at Real Madrid.

"I realise it would take a lot for him to move from England.

"He loves the country, he loves Manchester and he is a Liverpool boy. And United is a good club for him. But you never know what could happen in the future."

  2. The people saying MADRID is in big debt here are some­ facts:
    Forbes' list of the most valuable football­ clubs: (estimated net worth)
    2009 rankings:
    1-­ Manchester united with $1,870,000 from which 46% are­ debt
    2-Real Madrid with $1,353,000 of which only 23%­ are debt

    meaning that REAL MADRID not only has less­ debt but if u subtract the debts from the total REAL­ MADRID has more money the MAN U

  11. Clearly missing the class of player and team ethos at­ Man Utd.

    Madrid is a zoo - not a football team. Take­ Raul out of the team and no heart.

    CR7 to be­ requesting a transfer and/or demanding more players are­ signed by the end of this season.

  20. I strongly doubt it in my heart that Ronaldo actually­ said those things. Wait and see him denying he talked­ to the press.
