He’s very fit, ambitious, competitive – Barcelona speak on signing Ronaldo

Barcelona have spoken on the possibility of signing Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.

At a point this summer, it was reported that Cristiano Ronaldo was heading to Barcelona.

Barca president Joan Laporta described the 37-year-old as a very good professional, who is still very fit and ambitious.

Barcelona already have the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in their attacking line and Laporta believes Ronaldo will have plenty of options for a transfer.

The Barcelona chief remained coy on whether the Portugal international and the Catalan giants were close to any deal, suggesting only Robert Lewandowski was in their mind.

“Ronaldo is a very good professional and he’s still so fit,” he said to CBS Sport.

“He’s a player who is very ambitious and competitive and I am sure he has a lot of options. He’s still a player of Manchester United, an extraordinary club who I respect very much.

“His future is not my business. It’s the business of Manchester United and Cristiano.”
