It is understood that United will stick to their stance of non-negotiation into the new year and, in all likelihood, through next summer and beyond.
While United recognise Ronaldo’s remarkable contribution to their recent successes, chief executive David Gill and owner Malcolm Glazer believe that the player’s current £120,000-a-week deal - which extends to 2012 - is sufficient.

Fock all man utd fans,let us see if ronaldo wants to leave if they won't triple the money.He is not even happy to receive 120 a week deal and wants to equal himself to the likes of his excellency captain john terry and frank lampard.Well,ronaldo is just a kid,so must be kidding.
