‘I know why Griezmann snubbed Man Utd’ Despite calls for unity in the Spanish capital and his status as the club’s all-time leading goalscorer, the four-time Ballon d’Or winner Ronaldo was targeted with jeering from Madrid fans during Sunday’s 3-0 league win over Real Sociedad.

Ronaldo and Messi vied for the right to lay claim to being Europe’s best player during the nine years the former Manchester United forward spent at Madrid, but Valverde said his €112million switch to Serie A calls time on the pair’s tussle.
