Ronaldo rubbishes Real exit talk
Posted Monday, June 29, 2015 by Foxsports.com
Cristiano Ronaldo has broken several months of near-silence to rubbish reports that he is unhappy at Real Madrid and wants to leave the Spanish giants.
The World Player of the Year has barely uttered a word since he gruffly told reporters after the Champions League defeat by Schalke 04 in March he would not speak to the media until the end of the season.
Despite the prolific Ronaldo's goal-scoring efforts, Real ended the campaign without major silverware and coach Carlo Ancelotti was sacked and Rafa Benitez brought in.
The former Manchester United player went out of his way to show support for Ancelotti before he was dismissed and Benitez's appointment prompted speculation Ronaldo had fallen out with the club and with president Florentino Perez.
However, the Portugal star took time out from his holiday to call for an end to speculation over his future.
"I would sincerely like the false reports to stop and to be left a little in peace," said Ronaldo who is on holiday in Miami.
"Reports that I have sought to create conflicts between myself and Real Madrid are absolutely false," the 30-year-old was quoted as saying in the Portuguese sports newspaper A Bola on Saturday.
"I am very happy at the best club in the world and very focused and confident of a new season full of successes."
Ronaldo, meanwhile, has also reportedly been busy trying to persuade Sergio Ramos to stay at the Bernabeu.
Manchester United have already had an offer of £35m rejected for the centre-back, who is involved in a contract wrangle with Real.
Former United star Ronaldo called Ramos from Florida to urge the defender not to sign for his old club, according to Spanish paper AS.
