Cristiano Ronaldo
Rayo Vallecano vs Real Madrid
At the Dubai International Sports Conference Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo said that he likes La Liga better than the English Premier League because it allows individual players to shine. Pretty much what he is saying is that he likes it because it makes him look good. Selfish players say selfish things.
Ronaldo joined Real Madrid in 2009 and has scored 86 goals in 79 appearances. Last year he became the first player to score 40 or more goals in a La Liga season.

Manchester City was reportedly ready to make a £150 million bid for Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo said that he would not join Man City. "Money is not the most important thing." he said, "If it was for money I could have double what I have. If it was for money I would leave.
Madrid manager Jose Mourinho was part of the reason why CR is staying, and he even stated that he "would sign for 10 years. For Madrid, until the end of [his] career." Today we found out how important Jose Mourinho was to his decision.
"It’s flattering to be offered like £20m a year - it’s very good, but I spoke to my agent and I think it’s better to stay in Madrid because this year we’re going to be the best. This season we are going to be a big force. Jose Mourhino is staying at Madrid so I stay. If he went to Chelsea then I would have left. I would have gone to Manchester City. But now he’s staying, I’m staying.”
Ronaldo has scored 86 goals in 89 games for Madrid since arriving at the club from Manchester United in for a world record £80 million in 2009.
