Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly wants 'Real' move.

Real Madrid talisman, Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly fed up with his club and could move back to England, either to his former club, Manchester United or Manchester City, former Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon claims .

According to the latter, CR7 who moved from Old Trafford Manchester for £80 million in 2009 is dissatisfied with Real Madrid’s current policy, then Xabi Alonso and Angel Di Maria’s exit also didn’t help matters.

“My impression is he is fed up with the policy of the current president. When he came to Real Madrid with Arjen Robben he thought he would be a good colleague for him in the team but then Robben was sold. Two years ago it was Gonzalo Higuain sold and he didn’t like that. Last year he thought it was a mistake to let Mesut Ozil leave and the last straw was selling Xabi Alonso and Angel Di Maria this summer.” Calderon told Talksport.

Real Madrid writes Nigerian midfielder, Onazi Ogenyi

This looks more than a show of solidarity to me. Seems he’s on the UCL title defenders’ radar, moreso he wasn’t the only player who was injured in the just-concluded tournaent. Some had more grievous injuries. Well, maybe there are “no strings attached”.
Giant Spanish club, Real Madrid have written to console Nigeria midfielder Ogenyi Onazi over his injury which he sustained during Nigeria’s clash with France at Brazil 2014. Recall that the 21-year old suffered a fractured ankle following a foul from France midfielder Blaise Matuidi .
The letter which was penned by Emilio Butragueno reads thus.
“We have learned about your serious injury during the game you played against France. On behalf of our president Florentino Perez and those who work for Real Madrid, we’d like to wish you a smooth and speedy recovery, as a former professional footballer, I know you are going through a difficult time but I’m utterly convinced that eventually, you’ll be back to full fitness to help your team achieve its goals next season.”

"I don't want him to face Ghana". Meet the Ghanaian witch doctor who claims he's responsible for C Ronaldo's knee injury.

I laughed for minutes when I saw this story. Like seriously? But then, you can’t under-estimate the power of charms. Nana Kwaku Bonsam, a prominent Ghanaian witch doctor has claimed responsiblity for Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo’s knee injury. He actually predicted in February that the former Manchester United player would not participate in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Nana whose name means “Devil of Wednesday” said the idea is to prevent Cristiano Ronaldo from facing the black stars when they meet Portugal in their final match of Group G in Brasilia on 26 June. Meanwhile the Portuguese might be ruled out of the forthcoming World Cup tournament after he was diagnosed with tendonitis in his left kneecap and a muscle problem in his left thigh. Could this be real or a coincidence?

Nana told presenters at Angel FM, Kumasi that he got leaves and some concoctions and placed it around the image and caricature of the former World best footballer.

“I know what Cristiano Ronaldo’s injury is about, I’m working on him. I said it four months ago, that I will work on Cristiano Ronaldo seriously and rule him out of the World Cup, or at least prevent him from playing against Ghana, and the best thing I can do is to keep him out through injury. I am very serious about it. Last week, I went around looking for four dogs and I got them to be used in manufacturing a special spirit called ‘Kahwiri Kapam. This injury can never be cured by any medic, they can never see what is causing the injury, because it is spiritual. Today, it is his knee, tomorrow it is his thigh, next day, and it is something else.”
