Ronaldo ready to move


Cristiano Ronaldo says "he would like to play for Real Madrid".  The Portuguese winger made his intentions clear in an interview with Brazilian newspaper Terra.  He also said it was not up to him to decide at this point.  He believes it is a issue between the two clubs now, and he will go to Real Madrid only when Manchester United receives the proper compensation.  Ronaldo also doesn't want to talk about any potential transfers until after the Euro's.  What do you guys think of the this never ending Ronaldo transfer saga?

Cannavaro will miss Euro's, Becks says stay Ronaldo


Canavarro to miss Euro 2008


Fabio Canavarro will miss Euro 2008 the Italian FA said.  He had a training ground collision, where he injured his ankle, and he won't be fit in time for any part of Euro 2008.  There is no word on a replacement yet, but Italy should be calling one in soon.  It is a sad sight to see the former World Footballer of the Year go down and have to miss a major tournament. 
Ronaldo to Madrid?

Cristiano Ronaldo has been told to stay at Manchester United, rather than moving to Real Madrid.  Beckham, speaking out of personal experience, said that it won't be a good decison for Ronaldo to leave Old Trafford, and go to the Bernabeau.  Real Madrid has also just said that they have the money to sign Ronaldo.  Madrid paid 40 million pounds for Zenidine Zidane 6 years ago, but it is rumored that they will pay have to pay much more than that this time.

Evening news


I've hit it big.  Two articles for Soccerlens and I'm all over google.  Here is my most recent article on why the US will beat England.  

In other news, Michael Owen is most likely out for the two upcoming friendlies for England with a virus.  He was on the 31 man roster, but may have to withdraw his name.  Don't fret English fans, you have a wealth of attacking options and there are plenty of capable replacements.
Alex Ferguson is mad at Real Madrid for the dogged chase after Cristiano Ronaldo.  The Scotsman said, Real Madrid have no moral issues at all."  Real have been praising the Portuguese winger highly in hopes to lure him to the club.
Carlos Bocanegra was released today by Fulham.  He fell in the order at Fulham to the point where he was usually an unused substitute.  He is widely rumored to be moving to either PSV Eindhoven, or Osasuna.  Carlos will be available for the England friendly upcoming on the May 28th.
