Portuguese paper A Bola have dropped a huge story on their front page on Friday.
Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Real Madrid, according to reports in his native Portugal, in a decision that has been described as “irreversible”. The 31-year-old former Manchester United winger is reportedly angry at his treatment by Spanish tax authorities and wishes to leave the country, according to the front page of Portuguese daily A Bola on Friday.
Ronaldo is the subject of a lawsuit brought by Spanish prosecutors over tax that they believe he should have paid on image rights income. The winger is being accused of defrauding nearly €15m from the taxpayer.
Real Madrid issued a statement fully supporting the player, claiming they were “absolutely convinced of his innocence.”
The Portuguese legend this month won his third Champions League as a Madrid player, and fourth of his career, but is so “indignant” at what he feels amounts to persecution that he is ready to walk away, and has communicated that decision to Florentino Pérez, the Real Madrid president.
A Bola recently also claimed that Ronaldo would be the subject of a €180m bid this summer, suggesting this outcome may have been in the pipeline for some time.
