Ronaldo’s agent rules out Man United return
Madrid: Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes has ruled out a Manchester United return, claiming the Portuguese winger will retire at Real Madrid.
And Mendes Friday even went so far as to claim Ronaldo is the greatest footballer of all time, and that his club should retire the famous number 7 shirt, worn by Raul and Alfredo Di Stefano, as a mark of respect, reports mirror.co.uk.
“I got to know him when he was a 15-year-old, from then until now we’ve spoken together on most days. When I’m in Madrid we always meet up, our relationship is more like a friendship,” Mendes said.
“I believe that Cristiano will finish his career at Real Madrid. He’s happy at the club and is still keen to achieve more success in Madrid.”
The Portuguese superstar is in the form of his life with Real Madrid, having already struck an astonishing 32 goals in all competitions for Los Blancos this season, including 25 in La Liga.
The 29-year-old, who won his second Ballon d’Or crown back in January, is favourite to retain the award at FIFA’s annual gala next month.
And Mendes believes that not only is Ronaldo deserving of a third individual crown, but that he should be looked upon as world football’s greatest ever performer.
“Cristiano is the greatest ever,” declared Mendes.
“It’ll be impossible for anyone to emulate him in the future. There’s just such a gulf between him and second best.”
Additionally, Mendes claimed that the Spanish giants should retire the No.7 shirt currently worn by Ronaldo when he leaves the club.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
