Ryan Giggs has urged Manchester United team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo to resist Real Madrid again and stay at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo was courted by the Spanish giants last summer, with reports suggesting the Portuguese winger wanted to move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
United stood firm and persuaded Ronaldo to remain with the club, but there is speculation Real will make a renewed attempt to sign the 24-year-old over the coming weeks.
However, speaking ahead of Wednesday's UEFA Champions League final against Barcelona, Giggs believes Ronaldo's career would be best served by staying at United.
Giggs expects Real to come back with a fresh bid to entice Ronaldo away, but he feels his team-mate can continue to improve his game under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Stable"He is at the best club," Giggs told The Sun .
"Cristiano has proved he is the best player in the world over the last couple of years and he has done that at United, so why leave?
"He's still a young player, still learning the game and can still improve. He can do that at United.
"Real Madrid will come back purely because of the club they are and the history they have got.
"But United are more stable in the fact there are no presidential elections and the manager's been here so long."
Giggs is also confident that Ronaldo will relish the clash with Barcelona in Rome, having scored in last season's final against Chelsea.
The Welshman added: "He's a big-game player. He was brilliant last season in the final and scored, and he thrives on those games."
