Former Real Madrid President Ramon Calderon hopes Cristiano Ronaldo stays at the club for the long-term but feels there’s a chance he’ll leave next summer.
Calderon told an interview with Le Parisien, reported by AS, that he’s heard the rumours linking Madrid’s record scorer with the likes of PSG and fears there’s something to them.
“I’ve heard rumours about strong interest from PSG. As a former President and a follower of Madrid, I hope it will never happen,” he remarked.
“But who knows in the world of football. I think his departure is possible.
“Right now Cristiano has not expressed [a desire to leave]. I think he will make his decision at the end of the season, in terms of trophies won and how he feels. Meanwhile, we follow the mystery.
“Cristiano is priceless. What he gives the team, in terms of goals and mentality, has no equivalent apart from [Lionel] Messi.
“And because if PSG or Manchester United buy Ronaldo they’ll have no problem paying off the price. He’ll raise it in marketing revenue.
“If Madrid sell for €100m, certainly they’ll be rich, but they could never buy a player like him.”
