2016 Real Madrid Roster Without Christiano Ronaldo? “I May End My Career Here Or Move To FC Barcelona,” Said Portugal International

Among an array of reports hinting that Real Madrid's roster may not include super-star soccer player Christiano Ronaldo next season, the Portuguese international has quelled rumors that he is not leaving the Spaniard giants. The rumors emerged after the unstoppable forward showed poor form, which a French TV report attributed to his frequent air-travel to Morocco to spend time with a male friend.

The Real Madrid player who has reached legendary heights in football, was on the cover of "Flash," a Portuguese magazine. Ronaldo reportedly threw a $2 million party on a visit to Morocco. "Flash" covered the fiesta as it leaked this week.

Real Madrid's new boss Rafa Benitez has been blamed for Real Madrid's poor show on the pitch, with Christiano Ronaldo scoring in five of thirteen games. Real Madrid has expressed concern about Ronaldo's place in the club's roster due to the trips to North Africa. Rumors about a deepening divide between Benitez and Ronaldo are also taking a strain on the world-class footballer.

However, football's three-time "Best Player Of The Year" Award gently shrugged off rumors saying, he was visiting friends across the Mediterranean, reported The Mirror.

While Ronaldo has defended Benitez and his presence on the Real Madrid roster next year to reporters, a report by the Sidney Morning Herald said that he is open to a move to Paris St. Germain, Manchester United or even FC Barcelona.

"Everything is open, all leagues, Christiano said, according to smu.com. "I may end my career here with Real Madrid.

"I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. If I was 75 per cent certain, I would say so, it wouldn't be a problem," he added.

"It's normal. That's why I'm not worried, because I know that everything has a beginning and everything has an end. I'm ready for that. I'm ready to stay at Real Madrid, to leave, to end my career when it's time. It's part of my job."
