Cristiano’s going nowhere: Gill
Posted by: admin in Man Utd, Speculation, tags: david gill, Man Utd, manchester united, real madrid, ronaldo, Speculation, viva ronaldo, vivaronaldoDouble player of the year, Cristiano Ronaldo will not be allowed to leave Manchester United at any price according to the club’s chief executive David Gill in an interview prior to the Champions League final in Moscow on Wednesday.
Ronaldo has been repeatedly linked with a world record, 100 million pounds
move to Real Madrid over the last year and the Portugal winger recently refused to rule out the possibility of a switch to Spain in the future, sparking frenzied media speculation that the Moscow game would be Ronaldo’s last game for Manchester United.
But Gill insists that Ronaldo is going nowehere. Ronaldo will see out his contract at Old Trafford.
“Without doubt we are. He’s got four more years (on his contract) until 2012, he’s been with us for five years and we’re sure he’ll be with us for many years to come,” Gill said.
“He’s clearly one of the best players in the world and he’s at a great club, winning trophies.
“He enjoys it immensely here, you can tell that when you speak to him privately. Why would he want to leave?
“We have no intention of letting him go, we will make sure that he’s very happy here, as we do with all our top players.”
Reports on Tuesday claimed United have debts of around 764 million pounds but Gill doesn’t believe that will force them to cash in on their prize asset.
“Manchester United is not a club that sells its main assets,” he promised.
“In order to service our debts we need a very successful team on the pitch, and you don’t achieve that by selling Cristiano Ronaldo.”
