Gambino Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport...icle2128737.eceCRISTIANO RONALDO has registered his initials as a trademark together with the number NINE — fuelling fears the Manchester United No7 is off to Real Madrid.The Sun can reveal the digits “CR9” were copyrighted last month in his Portuguese homeland to be used on merchandise or as the name for a restaurant or bar.Spanish giants Real Madrid — poised to make a world record £70million summer swoop for the winger — were last night said to have promised him their No9 shirt.Ronaldo, 23, revealed he was learning Spanish after he was this week crowned World Player of the Year.He also has a sponsorship deal with a Portuguese bank giving them exclusive marketing rights if he goes to Spain.CR9 was registered by his agent Jorge Mendes at the National Institute of Industrial Property in Lisbon. Ronaldo already has CR7.Real are said to be ready to pay him £220,000 a week — more than twice his wage at Old Trafford.Fans give “love him” or “hate him” verdicts on the star in a new video posted on the internet by sponsors Nike.Ronaldo, disguised in a trilby and scarf, appears in it himself — mimicking a Manc accent to declare: “He’s the best player in the world . . . mate!”Yesterday he spoke for the first time about cheating death when he wrecked his £315,000 Ferrari a week ago.Ronaldo — who was taking the 205mph car for its first spin when he walked away without a scratch — said: “I’m thankful to God that I’m OK.”He added: “We all have bad days, but I have to say I feel great, the same as I did before.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agony Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Ronaldo makes United pledgeFifa World Player of the Year commits to Red DevilsBy Chris Burton Last updated: 14th January 2009 Cristiano Ronaldo has again moved to distance himself from reports linking him with a move to Real Madrid.The Manchester United winger became embroiled in a long-running transfer saga involving the Spanish giants last summer, before eventually committing his future to the Red Devils.Those at Old Trafford had hoped his public show of affection for the club would help to bring an end to the incessant rumours.However, the issue has resurfaced following the opening of the January transfer window, with Real once again touted as a possible destination for Ronaldo this summer.The Portuguese superstar insists he is happy at United, though, and has reiterated his intention to remain at the club for the foreseeable future."I intend to win as many trophies as I can with this club for as long as possible," he said."We are a young team and the future is good."I want to be here and be part of the success that lies ahead. It is great to be part of such a fantastic club."I intend to be here for years and years."Ronaldo is certainly not letting his focus be distracted by the Real rumours, and is targeting a clean sweep of silverware this term.United have already claimed the Club World Cup this season, but remain in the running for Premier League, UEFA Champions League, FA Cup and Carling Cup glory."We are going to try and win the lot, and why not? In my head I know it is possible," added Ronaldo."The priority is to retain the Premier League and Champions League and we have the players, the spirit and desire to do more."We want to make history by winning all five trophies."http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,116...791355,00.html# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
