Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo admits he is aware of Real Madrid's desire to sign him, but has been ordered by Sir Alex Ferguson not to discuss the Spanish giants' interest.
Ronaldo was tracked down by Spanish journalists over the weekend who were keen to discuss a possible switch to Spain, but was reticent to discuss his future having revealed his manager's instructions.
"I know of the interest of Real Madrid, but I can not say anything," he told reporters from Spanish sports newspaper AS.
"Yesterday (Saturday), I had two chats with Carlos Queiroz and Alex Ferguson and they have forbidden me to speak about Real Madrid.
"You have to understand that because I don't want any problems."
