The Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has said that he is extremely happy with the way Cristiano Ronaldo has become one of the best players in the world under his guidance. Ferguson played a huge role in the 18-year-old is becoming one of the best players in the world.

He spent six seasons at Old Trafford before moving to Real Madrid in a world record transfer fee of £ 80 million. It is expected that Real Madrid will not be willing to sell the player unless they receive a bid in excess of £ 100 million. There are very few clubs in the world capable of playing such an extravagant amount, and the archrivals of Manchester United – Manchester City – is one of them.

Ronaldo recently dropped a bombshell by admitting that there is a possibility that he could join city in the future. Ronaldo recently scored in the last 16 Champions League encounter against his former club Manchester United. After the match, his former manager Ferguson claimed that Ronaldo will never join Manchester city due to his connections with Old Trafford. Ferguson has also said that he is extremely happy at the way Ronaldo has progressed even after joining Real Madrid. Ronaldo has managed to score 24 goals in the league this season.

"I spoke to him. He is sitting in our dressing room, talking to the lads. He had six years with us and I am proud of how he flourished. Ferguson also marvelled at the nature of Ronaldo's goal. I blamed Patrice Evra for not challenging for his goal until I saw the replay and felt a bit stupid. His knee is about as high as Evra's head - phenomenal. I don't think any other player in the world can do that, certainly not Messi," said Ferguson.
