Manchester United legend Roy Keane jokes: ‘I made Ronaldo!’
Ronaldo joined Real Madrid from Manchester United for £80m in 2009, and has thus far scored 326 goals in 315 appearances in all competitions for Los Blancos.
Ronaldo said he had never forgotten Ferguson’s compassion in allowing him to visit his late father – who suffered from alcoholism – when he was ill. “Cristiano was an unwanted baby but he’s given me so much joy”.
However, Ronaldo, perhaps sensing he was being seen as weak, quickly cut in: “I am not afraid of nothing…”
Ronaldo was the main man on Monday night during the premiere of his documentary in London, with a host of stars such as Mourinho and another former manager in Sir Alex Ferguson attending the event.
According to tribune.com.pk, Cristiano’s film “Ronaldo” was made by award- winning film makers about Amy Winehouse and Ayrton Senna.
“For me it is not a problem”, he said when Ross asked him what he would say to his son. “I feel very comfortable with the cameras, with the media”. “Probably maybe for you or for many people, I’m the best player but I still want to learn, I still want to work hard to dedicate myself all the time because you don’t achieve nothing without the work”. To play in Sporting and move was “wow, what is that?” In my mind, not just this year but always, I’m always the best.
He also refused to be drawn on the crisis surrounding suspended Federation Internationale de Football Association president Sepp Blatter, who is pictured in the film during scenes shot at various Ballon d Or galas.
“Because 18 years old, to play 50 percent of the games, for me it s unbelievable”.
Manchester United’s hopes of one day re-signing Cristiano Ronaldo have been dealt perhaps a fatal blow by his agent Jorge Mendes, who has insisted that the Portuguese will finish his career at Real Madrid. “If I had to choose one title then the Champions League would be the most important”, he said. “I do not worry about that or about what is going to happen in my future”, Ronaldo said.
“100% he is going to understand me”.
