Ronaldo To Spurn Fergie Meeting?

Following on from Marca's earlier claim that Manchester United had already begun plotting a replacement for Ronaldo, As' claims seem to indicate that the player's time at Old Trafford is up.

The paper reports that Ronaldo will tonight leave the island of Sardinia, where he has been since Portugal's exit from Euro 2008, but rather than heading back to Manchester he and his girlfriend will join friends for a trip to Miami.

Apparently his journey to the Floridian metropolis is confirmed after he procured tickets without first returning home to the Manchester area.

As deems this gambit a product of agent Jorge Mendes' strategy. Mendes allegedly regards this move as integral to angering United and thus increasing their chances of letting Ronaldo leave for Real Madrid.

Ferguson, meanwhile, had apparently concluded his holiday in the south of France in anticipation of a meeting with Ronaldo, although he now may end up disappointed.
