Cristiano Ronaldo subject to enormous £260m bid

An unnamed Chinese club has offered Real Madrid €300 million (£260 million) for Cristiano Ronaldo, according to the player’s agent.

However, the bid has been rejected by the Spanish club, with the former Manchester United winger said to be content with life at the Bernabéu.

“From China they’ve offered €300 million to Real Madrid and more than €100m per year to the player [Ronaldo],” said his agent, Jorge Mendes. “But money is not everything. Real Madrid is his life. Cristiano is happy at Real Madrid and it is impossible to go to China.

“The Chinese market is a new market. They can buy a lot of players, but then again it is impossible to go for Ronaldo. Cristiano is the best player in the world and best ever. It is normal to have some offers.”
