Luiz Felipe Scolari, the new Chelsea manager has spoken out about the saga concerning Real Madrid, Man Utd and Ronaldo. Scolari says that Manchester United will not be able to stop Cristiano Ronaldo from joining Real Madrid if that is the decision he chooses to take. Scolari, who's contract recently ended as Portugal coach, knows Ronaldo well through their time spent together with the Portuguese national team. He insists that as Real Madrid want Ronaldo that his time spent with Manchester United could soon draw to a close.

Ronaldo has also admitted in the past that it would be his dream to play for Real Madrid. All of this points to an uncertainty regarding his contract with Man Utd.

Sir Alex Ferguson however, manager of Manchester United insists that Ronaldo is not for sale and that they are not interested in listening to offers for the winger. Scolari though, says that if Ronaldo chooses that he would like to play for Real, it will be a done deal and there is nothing that Man Utd can do to stop him.

Scolari said, & Ronaldo is a very mentally strong person. All of this speculation surrounding his future does nothing to hurt him, in fact it makes him stronger. He has confided in me that it is his dream to play for Real Madrid and I am sure that is what he will do. I feel sure that Cristiano will not be playing for Manchester United next season." Wherever Ronaldo is next season it will only be good for the game of football, Ronaldo is an amazing player and makes live football  an exciting spectacle to watch.
