Ronaldo pledges career

The Portuguese superstar has been linked with a move to big-spending Premier League side Manchester City just two years after his move to the Bernabeu from Manchester United for a world record £80 million fee.

However the 26-year-old, who scored 53 goals in all competitions for Los Merengues last season, does not envisage leaving the Spanish capital for any amount of money.

"I can't see myself leaving Madrid," he told the Cadena COPE radio station. "I'm very happy here, it has been phenomenal.

"If I was after just money I could have doubled what I have in my account.

"But for me the most important thing is how people treat you. If the (Real president Florentino Perez) told me to sign on for 10 years today, I would do it - although I don't know what will happen tomorrow."

The 2008 World Player of the Year won his first trophy in Spain after scoring the winning goal in the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona in April. However, Barca came out on top over their bitter rivals, beating Real in the Champions League semi-finals en route to lifting the trophy for the third time in six years and also retaining their league title.

Despite spending his two years in Spain in the shadow of Barca, and in particular Lionel Messi, Ronaldo is optimistic of a future in which Real are once again top dogs in Spain.

"They won (last season) because they were the best, but no team is unbeatable," he said.

"Barca have a great team and a good coach, but we'll get there. We have already shown in the cup and in other games (that we can compete). We want to beat them and difficult things bring a different pleasure."
