Man Utd sent damning Cristiano Ronaldo message amid fresh Paul Pogba transfer exit talk

“When I say better I mean who players you could understand, like Ronaldo goes from United to Spain.

“It happens a lot at Liverpool – everyone sees Barcelona and Real Madrid as the pinnacle of club football and we have to accept that, and you’ve always got the best players in the world there.

“There’s no chance in the world that Real Madrid or Barcelona buy him. I’d be flabbergasted they come in for him.

“Maybe there’s a French thing with [Madrid boss Zinedine] Zidane, I don’t know, but I wouldn’t go anywhere near him.”
