It's been revealed that the master-slave meeting has finally been held. Alex Ferguson insists that Cristiano Ronaldo will remain at Old Trafford next season and will not join Real Madrid. Fergie met Ronaldo in Lisbon last week."It went well. We put across our points of view, where we stand and where the player stands," explained Ferguson. "I can say he'll be a Manchester United player next season. He won't be sold.
"It's not a difficult position. I wasn't panicked because Ronaldo is under contract so the strength and the rights are with Manchester United. What we did well was to say nothing. We kept quiet on this matter and kept it private and what I said to Cristiano will remain private.
"I did go and see him last week and it was very amicable. There were no problems. That's where we are and we carry on. He's on crutches for the first four weeks, he'll be in rehabilitation for the next four and then the following four he'll be back into football training. The time mapped out is three months and we won't bring him back a day earlier than that. I think when players have operations we have a responsibility that the player comes back 100% and we'll carry that out as we normally do. There'll be no risk-taking - we never take risks. Our goal is to always make sure that the player gets back 100% and that will be the same in the case of Cristiano Ronaldo."
