Is Ronaldo Heading For Retirement?

The United winger said earlier in the week that he may consider a move to Real Madrid after next weeks Champions League final. Retirement you may ask? Why, he's the best footballer in the world. I agree with you. He is one of best, if not the best, player in the world right now. But in recent years it seems like Madrid have picked up United players who are well on their way out the door, Beckham and van Nistelrooy for example.

But will he leave? Will United let him leave? United's chief executive, David Gill, said in January that they would not sell their Portuguese international. He also hinted last week that Red Devils are gearing up for another high dollar signing season and that they hope to improve the team even more. I am not sure that they possibly could improve the team even more. This is by far one of the best United teams to ever be kitted out in a season and if the entire first team can be fit and fielded for next weeks match against Chelsea then it is highly likely that I will be dodging renditions of "Glory Glory Man United" both on facebook and at my friend Josh's wedding next week.

Will he leave? Not for another year. If the squad gets better next year, it is likely that they will win the Treble again. Ronaldo would not pass up a chance like that to play for the La Liga winners. He wants to win. He wants trophies to his credit. He said so at the Football Writers Association gala. I think he is starting to talk about the transfer prospect now so that when it comes down to actually transferring, he will have his pick of clubs that will be after him. So, is he heading for retirement? Nah, No one heading for the retirement home would be able to dance around defenses or his intentions quite the way Mr. Ronaldo does.
