ACTUALLY RONALDO MOVE TO REAL MADRID WAS MADE IN 2008.

Even though Cristiano Ronaldo moved from Manchester United to Real Madrid in 2009, the deal was done a year earlier in the year 2008 . It was all thrashed out in the house of the foormer assistant manager to Alex Ferguson Carlos Querioz. Alex Ferguson was not at first willing to sell Cristiano Ronaldo for eighty million pounds a then world record for a footballer. Alex Ferguson was not keen at all to sell Ronaldo, these are his very own words. Do you think I would sell him to a mob of yours, refering to Real Madrid , I am not going to sell you all anything, not even a virus , leave alone Cristiano Ronaldo. But it was all sorted out in Carlos Querioz own house. We must remember that Ronaldo joined Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon for just 12 million pounds, so eighty million pounds was very big money then in 2009.
