Could Cristiano Ronaldo be joining the PSG? According to rumors, the French club is ready to offer about £250 million or $387 million for him to leave Real Madrid next summer. Most experts say, do not listen to the hype because Ronaldo is staying in Spain, at least until 2018.
Cristiano Ronaldo and PSG are a match made in soccer heaven if you ask the owners of the French club, but not so fast says Real Madrid’s president, Florentino Perez.
This weekend, news broke that the Paris Saint-Germain F.C. was ready to offer £250 million or $387 Million to convince Cristiano Ronaldo to leave the Real Madrid.
The PSG is offering Ronaldo his £15m or 23 million dollars of annual salary. According to the Daily Mail, the billionaire members of the Qatar Sports Investments heard rumors that the Ballon d’Or and FIFA World Player of the Year recipient was frustrated by his new manager, Rafa Benitez.
It is claimed that Benitez and Ronaldo clashed during a training session that involved hitting the ball at the crossbar; the athlete was heard saying:
“It’s meant to be the ball in there, in the net. Not this s***”.”
Real Madrid’s president Florentino Perez rapidly stepped out to blast the rumors saying that it would cost €1 billion to get the forward to the negotiating table. Perez stated:
“If PSG want Cristiano Ronaldo it’s simple, they have to pay the €1billion release clause. No one is a prophet in football, but we don’t want to sell him in 2016, he still has three years left on his contract.”
Why is Ronaldo worth over a billion dollars? His name sells Real Madrid gears, keeps the stadium full and attracts major advertisers. The soccer legend has also:
netted 313 goals in 302 appearances in all competitions and has not had a seasonal tally of less than 50 since his first campaign.
Ronaldo has helped Madrid to seven trophies during his time at the club, with the 2013-14 Champions League title standing out as the crowning achievement of a glittering haul.
According to soccer experts, there is considerable doubt that Cristiano Ronaldo is leaving Spain anytime soon because his contract runs through the summer of 2018. It is also being reported that Manchester United is trying to get the star to come back to his old team.
On Saturday, Cristiano Ronaldo was making headlines on the soccer field as he arrived for his match against Granada with a very special guest – Zaid Abdel-Muhsen Alghadab, the little Syrian refugee, who fell with his father after being tripped by Hungarian camerawoman, Petra Laszlo.
