BEST CHANCE FOR PSG TO LURE RONALDO

Although it borders mostly on the improbable, Cristiano Ronaldo’s latest drama triangle with the Spanish tax authorities and Real Madrid appears to have cooked up a chance for PSG to sign the one player they have admired since laying their hands on Petrodollars.

The Parisians have had a fair share of superstars join since signing the Portuguese seemed impossible. Edison Cavani, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and an impressive number of quality players have bought in to their gospel for the past 6 years.

That doesn’t mean they ever stopped burrowing through paper works and mathematical probabilities on the chances of signing the former Manchester United man.

For this summer’s transfer window though, it appears the current Best Player in the world of football did provide a loophole with which they can scoop him up.

Jovetic was constantly attacking in the first half, hitting the frame work twice. Ronaldo finished their opponents at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu when he scored the third for the league leaders. Toni Kroos completed the roué with a good strike.

Barcelona defeated Las Palmas 4-1 to remain in contention for the title. Madrid now have to remain focused for the final clash in order to land their first La Liga title in five years. They have Celta Vigo on Wednesday and Malaga next week to seal the title. No matter the result at Eibar, Barcelona would not be able to steal it. Only if they do what is required.

Madrid defences showed lapses that Juventus could take advantage of when they meet in Cardiff. The pairing of Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane was shaky. They struggled to hold off their opponents. Varane is yet to hit top form after his injury. Ramos is untouchable so Pepe, who is set to return, would pair his captain in the Champions League final. (more…)
