CRISTIANO Ronaldo is 1/3 to remain at Manchester United for the start of the season after Sir Alex Ferguson claimed the winger would not be joining Real Madrid.

And Ladbrokes offer 11/5 about the Portuguese star making the switch to the Spanish capital.

The firm’s spokesman, Nick Weinberg, said: “Ronaldo looks likely to stay at Manchester United.

“But, despite Sir Alex Ferguson’s tough words, a big bid from the Bernabeu could test both the club and player's resolve."
