Good friend Luis Campos says Cristiano Ronaldo needs time to "reflect" on his situation at Real Madrid.
The Portuguese player is hurt by the scandal that has been generated around the judicial procedure concerning alleged tax fraud.
"I think at this moment Cristiano needs a few days of reflection," Campos said to French TV programme 'TF1.'
"He told me that he wants it too, and that's normal.
"The situation at Real Madrid is now a bit tense but Cristiano will need time to make the right decision.
Mirroring the players last outburst a few years ago, Campos suggested his friend was upset.
"He is sad about what is happening now," he continued.
"Cristiano concentrates a lot on his work and that nobody can think that it is he who fills in his tax return."
