Real Madrid boss Ancelotti: Selling Ronaldo would be madness

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti says it would be madness to sell Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo has been linked with Manchester United and Manchester City this season.

But Ancelotti warned: "Of course there is a dependence on Cristiano. If Real Madrid lost Cristiano, it is losing a player who scores in every game.

"The facts say that he has scored something like 280 goals in 250 matches.

'Football is a team game and you have to play with the whole team together, but for us having him is a big plus.

"It is easy to say that he is the best I've trained because I've been fortunate to train the best - even defenders and goalkeepers. There are many great players."
