This doesn't sound encouraging for his Real Madrid future
Cristiano Ronaldo has had a wonderful career at Real Madrid. He has scored 311 goals in 292 games, revolutionised what it means to be a striker, become the most famous footballer in the world and won everything there is to win.

According to journalist Dermot Corrigan, Ronaldo told journalists that "it has been very nice playing for Real Madrid" and that his future will be sorted "in coming days".
