Cristiano Ronaldo’s godfather, Fernao Sousa, has added to the continuous summer row over where Cristiano Ronaldo will end up playing, bu saying that the Manchester United winger has already decided to move to Real Madrid. Sousa, who took Ronaldo to Sporting Lisbon as an 11-year-old and later advised him to move to Manchester, is sure that “Cristiano should take this opportunity to go to Real Madrid”.

The Portuguese midfielder’s godfather told the Spanish sports newspaper Marca: “I believe that he has decided he is going to Real Madrid but he is not going to say so until after the European Championship.”

Sousa is not the only member of Ronaldo’s family backing a move to the Bernabéu. His mother, Dolores Aveiro, has made no secret of her wish for the 23-year-old to play for the Spanish champions. “Madrid is my team, the best team in the world, and I’d like him to go there,” she told the Spanish newspaper As. “I love Madrid and I would go and live with him.”

However, Real Madrid’s president, Ramón Calderón, already rattled from the outburst from Old Trafford, threatening to report them to FIFA said. “Manchester have already said that they are not selling the player and we can’t buy something that the owner doesn’t want to sell. We’ve said it many times and also we don’t want a conflict with a club like Manchester with whom we have good relations. Things are as they are and we have to forget about it.”
