United: Ronaldo 'not for sale'
Manchester United have reiterated that Cristiano Ronaldo is "not for sale" despite the Portuguese saying he wants to join Real Madrid.
"Further to Friday's press speculation about where Cristiano Ronaldo's future lies, the club has moved to reiterate its stance on the matter: United are not listening to offers," United's website said.
The 23-year-old told reporters after Portugal's 3-2 Euro 2008 quarter-final defeat by Germany on Thursday that there was a strong possibility he would leave the Old Trafford club.
"The possibilities [of going to Real] are big but it doesn't depend on me and because of that I don't want to talk about it," he said.
Asked if there had been an offer from Real, he said: "I think so, I don't know. In the next few days we'll see if we reach an agreement.
"Everyone knows what I want. But in the next two or three days you'll have something new."
Asked when he had made the decision about his future he said: "Some time ago, before this competition.
"I didn't want to say anything because we were in competition and these are important decisions."
When asked whether he wanted to leave for personal or sporting reasons.
"Personal," he answered. "It's something I want, something I dream about.
"[It would be] a step forward... for me it's a very good opportunity. As [Portugal's Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe] Scolari says, this only happens once."
He added that leaving Manchester United would be difficult "but I think it could be good for both of us".
Ronaldo also revealed he had been playing with a foot injury for three months and would need an operation to correct it.
Regarding his unspecified foot injury, he said: "I'm going to have an operation now. I have had a small problem for about three months with my foot.
"[The operation] is going to be in Manchester. I'm going to speak with them and in three or four days I'll have the operation and then I want to make a good recovery."
Ronaldo said he had not spoken to Alex Ferguson, who unsuccessfully reported Spanish champions Madrid to football's world governing body FIFA over what the United manager saw as an illegal approach for a player still under contract.
Ronaldo's comments came on the day a senior Bernabeu figure said they were waiting for him to make the first move before starting negotiations with United over a possible transfer.
"We are waiting for Ronaldo to say something, and as soon as he says he wants to play for Real Madrid there will be conversations between the two clubs," Madrid's director general of the presidency Miguel Angel Arroyo told Marca.
"We would willingly reach an agreement with Manchester United if it is possible, that is to say, if they want to sell and if the price was affordable."
