Cristiano Ronaldo signed a new contract with Manchester United.

The 22-year-old Portuguese finally signed a new contract with United, ending all speculation on the possible move to Real Madrid or Barcelona.

"I am very happy at the club and I want to win trophies and hopefully we will do that this season."

Ronaldo has been great form this season, and will one of the favourites to win the the PFA Player of the Year award.

Bayern may agree Hargreaves sale

Bayern Munich president Franz Beckenbauer has admitted England midfielder Owen Hargreaves could be sold to Manchester United this summer.

The Bundesliga giants have so far refused to grant the 26-year-old's wish to leave for Old Trafford.

But Beckenbauer, speaking on German television, said: "If it is right there is an offer of 25-30m euros (£17-20m), then I would seriously consider it.

"I think the board also think this way to satisfy the needs of the player."

Hargreaves has been a long-standing United target and the player has expressed a desire to play in England.

So far, Bayern have refused to deal with the Premiership leaders and suggested Hargreaves should honour the new four-year contract he signed last summer.

But a United bid of up to £20m could be enough to get their man this summer.

Hargreaves said: "I will sit down with Bayern and we will discuss how my future looks."

REAL TO BID £54m FOR RONALDO

Real Madrid have reportedly agreed to offer Man. United £54m for Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.


The Portuguese winger has been in dazzling form this season and is currently widely regarded as the best player in the world. However, his spellbinding performances, both in the Premiership and Champions League, have also made him the hottest property in world football and Man. United face an arduous fight to retain his services beyond the current campaign.


Having stalled on extending his Old Trafford contract, Ronaldo has been repeatedly linked with a move to the Bernabéu and it is understood that the Spanish giants have made him their number one target this summer.


According to The Guardian, 'Real Madrid have stepped up their attempt to sign by meeting his agent and agreeing a course of action that directors at the Santiago believe will end with the Portugal winger becoming their latest galáctico.


'Franco Baldini, right-hand man to Madrid's sporting director, Predrag Mijatovic, and the man who negotiates all of the club's signings, met Jorge Mendes in London last Wednesday.


'Sources at Madrid claim that during the meeting, Baldini confirmed that Ronaldo is their No1 priority for next season and informed Mendes that they would be prepared to meet Manchester United's asking price for the winger - expected to be somewhere in the region of ¿80m (£54m).'


Any such deal would represent a new world-record transfer fee, usurping the £46m spent by Madrid in 2002 on Zinedine Zidane.
