LONDOn. — Cristiano Ronaldo would cost £1 billion to lure away from Real Madrid, according to his super agent Jorge Mendes, who believes he will see out his career with the Galacticos.The Real Madrid star is not only better than Lionel Messi, he is the best sportsman in history claimed Mendes, who has brokered some of the biggest transfers in European football.
Cristiano Ronaldo would sell for £300m if Real Madrid decided to let him leave tomorrow, the Portuguese superstar’s agent has told BBC Sport.
Mendes said the Portugal captain was the “best sportsman ever”.
“He is the best player ever in the world. You can’t compare him with anybody else,” Mendes told sports editor Dan Roan.
Ronaldo (29) was voted the world’s best player for a third time last month, beating Lionel Messi to the award.
Asked how much he was worth, Mendes said: “Cristiano Ronaldo? One billion. His buyout clause one billion, so it is one billion. It is impossible to find someone like him. “If for any reason the club decide to sell him tomorrow for 300 million, someone will pay.” — BBC Sport
