Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon says it was Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo who instigated this summer’s transfer saga.
Ronaldo looked set to join the Spanish giants in the summer, but Sir Alex Ferguson refused every attempt by Real.
“We have left that, it has been a very big story which we didn’t provoke,” Calderon told Sky Sports News.
“The player said he wanted to come here, a dream to come to Real Madrid and we received and we were happy to know that.
“After that I talked to Manchester but David Gill was very clear and said they didn’t want to sell at all.
“We want to have a good relation with all the big clubs in Europe and Manchester is one of the best and I like to have a good relationship with them forever, and they said for the moment no.”
