Cristiano Ronaldo

Emilio Butragueño, director of institutional relations of Real Madrid, said that “the team is prepared to play tomorrow against football club Espanyol with or without Cristiano Ronaldo.” Real Madrid is waiting to see if Cristiano will be able to play tomorrow depending on if they can get the sanction lifted. ” We don’t want to make a lot of comments in this sense. Real Madrid has defended their interests and that of the player now we wait” said Butragueño. Another of the issues that was discussed was the good soccer played against soccer club La Coruña in which Cristiano did not play. Butragueño commented that ” I know that the absence of Cristiano affects the team, but I am glad that the team played well and obtained the three points. We have played very well without Cristiano, but we all want Ronaldo to play all the games.”
