Ronaldo wrangled and campaigned and politicked to get the move he craved: his world-record $131 million transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid last summer. Madrid fought for it just as hard, allowing the price to be driven up – past record-breaking, past realistic, past mind-boggling – to a stratospheric figure. Greed ruled this transaction, one which, less than a year later, has turned out to be a dramatic disappointment for all concerned.
I could say "I told you so" but ill save Real Madrid the embarassment. There is no way Ronaldo is worth 131 million dollars and unfortunately Real Madrid is learning the hard way. Yeah, he would be good if you're making a highlight film and you want to see a dude dance around a ball for a couple seconds, but that's all hes good for. He might make a free kick or two as well but he cant pull through for you in the clutch and make stuff happen. Im not saying i wouldnt want him on my team. but im not paying 130 million for him thats for sure.
