Cristiano Ronaldo: 5 Reasons Why CR7 Wants To Leave Real Madrid

What has forced Cristiano Ronaldo, the four-time Ballon d’Or winner to take such a drastic step? Here we take a look at all the constructive reasons behind this possible once-in-a-lifetime transfer.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are the two most dominant forces in Spain, and are also the prized possessions of their respective clubs, Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Every year and in every season, there are more than a couple of records that Cristiano Ronaldo makes or breaks and one such was the 2016/17 season where he became the first ever footballer to score 100 European as well as Champions League goals, followed by Real Madrid registering the first ever European double in the history of this sport.

However, his 2017/18 campaign has turned out to be one of the worst starts of his career as he has just scored a single goal in seven appearances in La Liga and 6 goals in Champions League.

On the other hand, Lionel Messi is leading the tally with 16 goals in all competitions for Barcelona. What has made matters worse for Ronaldo is the fact that before his sub-standard form and lower conversion rate, he received a 5-match ban from the Spanish League, which has resulted in Real Madrid trailing behind leaders Barcelona by 8 points, a margin they have never recovered from.

However, there is a 1,000 million euros release clause on Ronaldo’s name and it would be hard for the player to convince any club to shell out that much of cash considering his current form. Keeping that in mind, he has asked Real Madrid to lower down the price for a smooth transfer.

Everything said and done, Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid could be an even bigger transfer than Neymar’s move to PSG and it could result in a major power reshuffle, both in Spain and in the Premier League, where CR7 could potentially move.

But what has forced the four-time Ballon d’Or winner to take such a drastic step? Here we take a look at all the possible reasons behind this once-in-a-lifetime transfer.

1. Real Madrid tried to sign Kylian Mbappé:

Cristiano Ronaldo feels that it was a “lack of respect” towards his illustrious career with Real Madrid when the club tried to sign Kylian Mbappé last summer, with a hefty fee of 140 million euros for the player.

Interestingly, it is also said that when the Portuguese learned about Madrid’s plans, he demanded an instant move which the club accepted, with a condition that Mbappé should be at Bernabeu first. In the end, the strike went to PSG on a ‘loan’ and joined Neymar while Ronaldo stayed in Madrid

It is said that Neymar is not at all happy at PSG despite having a great start in Paris with 12 goals in 11 appearances, and is looking for a move to Real Madrid. Having been annoyed with the Mbappé-saga, Cristiano Ronaldo is now infuriated with at the rumors that Real Madrid might pursue Neymar.

3. The Money Factor:

Last week, Cristiano Ronaldo publically said that he is happy with his current contract and doesn’t want an extension. However, it is said that Real Madrid is adamant on keeping the 5-time Fifa Player Of The Year at Santiago Bernabeu and has already offered a salary improvement to the player.

In comparison to the 35 million euros that Neymar is earning at PSG and the 40 million euros Lionel Messi is banking at Barcelona after his latest renewal, Ronaldo’s 21 million euros a year seems a little pale. And since Real Madrid did not agree to take his package in line with the other two, he forcefully said, “I don’t want to renew, I’m happy as I am”, after the humiliating defeat against Tottenham Hotspur.

4. Problems with Spanish Tax Authorities:

Cristiano achieved his first Ballon d’Or and FIFA World Player of the Year awards in 2008.

t was the tax evasion accusation on Cristiano Ronaldo that planted the idea of leaving Spain in Cristiano Ronaldo’s mind. With the case still being accessed, there is a huge possibility that Ronaldo could be given an imprisonment penalty, if things go badly.

5. His Relationship With Sergio Ramos:

Ramos and Ronaldo are two of the most senior players in the team and there have been many reports that the Portuguese and the captain has had multiple fallouts in the dressing room while discussing strategies. And now since the likes of James Rodriguez, Alvaro Morata and Pepe have left the club, all of whom were Ronaldo’s close friends, Ramos now has a dominance over the young squad of Nacho, Marco Asensio, Dani Carvajal, Isco and Dani Ceballos.

Moreover, while Cristiano Ronaldo has openly stated that Real Madrid’s failures have a great thing to do with the lack of experience in the squad, Sergio Ramos has defended Zinedine Zidane’s young guns by saying that is the same squad that won two Super Cups in the initial days of this season.
