So Is Cristiano Ronaldo finally going to Real Madrid?

What does this have to do with UEFA EURO 2008?
Too much distraction for Cristiano Ronaldo, the player. How can he or the national team perform at its best on June 7th in Portugal - Turkey?

Now that he said he'll decide his future in "2 or 3" days. More speculation. More questions from the Spanish reporters in the Viseu portugal training. Why not just say like Scolari, I'll decide after EURO 2008, period.

After today's friendly Portugal 2-0 Georgia, Spanish reporters asked Atletico Madrid player Simao Sabrosa in the 'mixed zone' about Ronaldo and Real Madrid. You can't get more irrelevant than that.

You can even sense a tinge of annoyance that the team might feel right now.

Here's what Simao said

"Ronaldo has a contract with Manchester United, but without a doubt Real Madrid is a big club for him. For the rivalry that exists, it would be bad for me [he plays with Atletico de Madrid]. Eventhough I'm not a defender." "What's important is that Ronaldo feels good. He needs calmness. The national team needs him at his best shape."

2 Spanish sports newspapers have Cristiano Ronaldo on the cover.

Marca Says "Scolari told CRonaldo, 'Go to Madrid'."

Scolari supports Ronaldo 'You have to take advantage of the opportunity. The trains only pass by once."

Here's what I think:
Spanish newspapers- worry about your own national team, la furia roja. Your own attack, will they deliver in the 1st matches? Torres and David Villa.

I hope Cristiano Ronaldo puts a stop to it by saying that he'll make his decision after the Euro 2008.


- What do you think about this Ronaldo-Real Madrid saga going on unnecessarily right now?
