I Want To Return To England – Ronaldo

Ronaldo

Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has hinted that he wants to go back to England. The Portuguese, accused of defrauding Spanish authorities of €14.7million, told the judge at his tax trial in Spain that he wants to go back to England.

Cadena SER reports that the Real Madrid forward, responding to questions from Judge Monica Gomez Ferrer, said: “In England, I never had these problems, that’s why I want to go back there.

“I always paid my taxes, always. In England and in Spain. And I always paid.

“As you know, I cannot hide anything, it would be ridiculous on my part to do such a thing. I am an open book.

“You don’t need to do anything but type my name into Google and everything about Cristiano comes out. For example, Forbes magazine releases all of my earnings”

Ronaldo added: “I paid everything in 2014. I don’t understand anything about this, I only went to school until my sixth year and the only thing I know how to do is play football well. When my advisors tell me, ‘Cris, it’s okay’ then I believe them.”

He also defended his agent Jorge Mendes, saying: “I pay, I want to be honest and I always pay.

“I trust my advisors and they are the best. I pay them well and they do good things and I leave everything in their hands.”

Ronaldo had been previously linked with a return to Manchester United.
