Fenerbahce coach Jorge Jesus: Ronaldo and I are friends; would he come here...?

Fenerbahce coach Jorge Jesus admits he'd love to work with Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

Jorge Jesus is close to his fellow Portuguese and knows Ronaldo is considering his future at Old Trafford.

"In Portugal they say Ronaldo can come to Fenerbahce because of Jorge Jesus, can he really come?" a Turkish journalist asked him today.

Jorge Jesus smiled and declared, disappointing the audience: "As for Ronaldo, we are friends but he has other ambitions, he has other ideas, which... makes those decisions.

"I don't know where he's going, but he's definitely not going to Fenerbahçe. It's not that I don't want to, he doesn't want to. I don't care."
