Cristiano Ronaldo says he'll stay at Manchester United

Published 21:19 02/05/09 By EXCLUSIVE by Simon Mullock

Cristiano Ronaldo has finally killed off claims that he is heading to Real Madrid this summer.

In his strongest public statement about his future at Manchester United, Ronaldo said: "I'm no longer thinking of Madrid. That dream is dead.

"The only thing I dream about now is Manchester United and winning the Champions League again in Rome."

The Portuguese winger has enraged United fans by courting interest from the Spanish giants.
