Cristiano Ronaldo. We’ve all heard of him, whether or not you’re a fan of soccer. He may be the best soccer player of this generation. Now the question comes, should he play for Manchester United, or continuing playing for Real Madrid? He left United for Madrid in 2009, with a transfer of €93 million being a world record for the highest paid transfer ever.
Since he joined Real Madrid, he has helped to win their 10th European World Cup as well as a Spanish League title. Last year, he won an award for the world’s best player. During a Real Madrid game, Manchester United fans flew a banner over the game with the words, “COME HOME RONALDO – UNITED REEL” written on it.
According to CBC sports polls, people are closely divided as to whether or not he should switch teams, a 55 to 45 per cent split, with the vote being in favour of Ronaldo staying with Real Madrid. Clearly, since his contract expires in quite a long time, he still has time to choose. He will most likely choose based on how much he will earn, how the teams are doing overall, etc. Who knows, he may not join either team and go for another team altogether. Only time will tell what one of the best soccer players in history will choose to do.
