Real Madrid NOT planning Ronaldo contract talks
Real Madrid are not considering the prospect of
extending Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract after the
forward claimed he could potentially play until he
is 40.
The 30-year-old last signed a revised deal with
Madrid in September 2013 and currently has
three years remaining on that contract.
After receiving his fourth Golden Boot on Tuesday,
Ronaldo pledged his long-term future to the
Spanish club: "My dream is to retire at Real
Madrid. If you take care of yourself you can play
until you are 40.
"I want to keep going for another five or six years.
I feel good and useful in Madrid and I want to win
here."
And Goal understands that Madrid have already
held private discussions with Ronaldo and have
informed the forward that there is no immediate
need to revise the current contract in place.
Ronaldo’s change in stance is also welcomed by
Madrid after the forward had claimed earlier in
October that “nobody knows the future” when he
was asked about potentially leaving the Spanish
capital.
Madrid president Florentino Perez also fuelled
speculation in September by hinting that the
Portugal international’s future may lie away from
the club: “Cristiano Ronaldo has a contract and we
want him to stay in the future, but in this life you
can’t be sure of anything.”
