According to Brazilian website Terra, the Portuguese said he might accept an offer to join the Primera Liga winners.

"I want to play for Real Madrid, but only if it is true they are eager to pay me and Manchester United what they have been saying they will."

Speculation has been rife that Ronaldo would make a big-money move to Real.

Real president Ramon Calderon recently said it would be difficult to convince United sell their prized asset.

"It does not depend on me. It is important to send a message," the 23-year-old said.

"From now on I will not talk again about this until the end of the Euros. It is not worth asking me because I will not reply."

However, Ronaldo's wish may prove to be a decisive factor in tempting United accept Los Merengues offer, which is expected to be a lucrative one.
