I don't know if I'll still be a United player next season, says Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo today plunged his future at Manchester United into fresh doubt by admitting that he 'doesn't know' if he will be at Old Trafford next season.

The Portuguese winger also delivered a withering attack on Sir Alex Ferguson's tactics after his side were outclassed by Barcelona in last night's Champions League Final.

Asked after United’s ­-‑ defeat if he would still be at the club next season, Ronaldo said: 'I don’t know.'

And his reaction sparked fresh doubts that he may again fancy a switch to Real Madrid. The Spanish giants came close to signing Ronaldo in a world-record £75million deal last year before the star opted to stay at Old Trafford. But Real may return with a similar offer this summer as they attempt to lure him to the Bernabeu.

And the winger, who is now set to head for international duty with Portugal, sidestepped the issue when pressed on his plans at the Olympic Stadium.

'My future now is the national squad, so that we can win, so that we can be in a good position in our qualifying group,' he said. 'About clubs, I do not want to talk about that, I want to rest, go on holiday, I am very tired, I have played a lot of games, a lot of pressure. The future, we will see.' (Daily Mail)
