In my capacity as an ardent supporter of Manchester United Football Club, I am going to consult a lawyer and find out whether I have the capacity to sue Real Madrid Football Club at the International Court of Justice for willfully and consistently harassing Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United.

Just before the last European championships, Real Madrid started their ambush of the young man with a reported world record transfer fee and the young man actually became dazzled and confused. He started contradicting himself in the media every now and then. He was not himself and this eventually affected his output on the field of play. Thanks to the sagacity of manager of the century Alex Ferguson, the young man was guided to take a firm decision to stay put at Old Trafford. He lost a bit of his sharpness and even though he scored the curtain raiser in the champions’ league cup final against Chelsea he missed his kick in the penalty shoot-out. United won the cup eventually thanks to goalie Van der Saar.

After a stunning recovery from a slow start this season that has seen him winning the European footballer of the year title and in the midst of the knock-out stages of this year’s champions’ league, Real Madrid have started their harassment again. They have changed the tactics this time. It is no longer direct talks with the player but with management.

One of Real Madrid’s directors, Pedro Traporte has been quoted as saying an agreement had been reached with United regarding a summer sale of Ronaldo. This is a brazen effort to unsettle Ronaldo who might begin to entertain doubts as to his future with United. Luckily the smart Alex has seen through this and his retort that he “would not sign a contract with that mob and not sell even a virus to Real Madrid” is quite loaded.

I believe Ferguson’s statement that there is absolutely no agreement at all between the clubs but for Real Madrid’s deliberate harassment of Ronaldo .I would like to seek an injunction to debar them from pestering the life of my idol player in the name of football.
