"Yes, but it's always a discussion in the papers," he continued, and I don't think the media shall buy Ronaldo."

Bleacher Report reported Tuesday that Manchester United "have got an offer prepared" for Ronaldo from his current team Real Madrid. Sky Sports' resident Spanish football expert and B/R UK guest columnist Guillem Balague said Ronaldo won't leave Real Madrid this month or next month, but that he will definitely go sometime in the near future.

Ronaldo's girlfriend Irina Shayk meanwhile talked about her love of Paris, prompting fans to speculate if Ronaldo could end up on Paris Saint-Germain.

"I am always moved to return to Paris and I hope to spend more time here one of these days," she told UK Express. "Is it that I should convince Cristiano to sign for Paris (Saint-Germain)? I don't know much about it but I do love Paris."
