MADRID (Reuters) -

After weeks of speculation Real Madrid finally brought an end to the Ronaldo transfer saga when they agreed a deal to sign the Brazil striker from Inter Milan minutes before Europe's transfer deadline expired.
'Real Madrid would like to announce that they have reached an agreement with Inter Milan for the transfer of Ronaldo who will join the club next Monday to undergo a medical and will then be presented to the media at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium,' said a spokesman for the Spanish club.

An Inter spokesman confirmed that the deal had been agreed with the club adding that they had reached an agreement to buy Argentina striker Hernan Crespo from Lazio to replace Ronaldo.

Spanish media reported that Real will pay 35million euros for Ronaldo plus another player of Inter's choice valued at about 10 million euros who will join the Serie A club during the winter transfer window.

This brings the total value of the deal to about $45million and puts it into the top seven most expensive transfers in football history.

Since finishing as top scorer in the World Cup with eight goals, Ronaldo made it clear he wanted to leave Inter for Real.

The Brazilian joined the Milan club from Real's Spanish rivals Barcelona in 1997, but his career had been hampered by knee injuries since the 1998 World Cup finals.
 
diz is getting crazy.

raul ronaldo figo zidane ...
 
I thought the same of Zidane, but I think this might actually be the one ball loving player too many.
 
Massive gamble. I'm not convinced he really is that fit. During the WC he had to have intensive physio every two hours just to train!

Could be the world's worst signing. I've heard that the Real fans have mixed feelings about it too.
 
Bad signing they would been stronger if they signed Nesta or Crespo.
 
After getting full money and support at Inter Milan during his injury years, it shows the sad "character" of this player and his advisers. I´m happy he doesn`t play for Man United.
 
This is not fair. We know that Real has debts and they buy the best players...
 
Surely Ronaldo would have to wait until January too now, bearing in mind the transfer window closed yesterday?
 
No, the deal was concluded yesterday... That's all that counts. The money had been deposited into Inter's account.

Real Madrid now have Zidane, Figo, Roberto Carlos, Makalele, Guti, Raul, and Ronaldo in their first team!! And they got an awesome kid out of the reserves called Portillo who's Spanish and plays just like Raul. Scored something like 400 goals in his career in reserves, he's only 20 too! Where's OUR fecking class reserves?

As for Real Debts. They don't have any! They did, until they sold off their Santiago Bernebau stadium to the Madrid Council for 600 plus million!
 
I just read that the deal involves any Madrid player of Inters choice Valued at 10million euros who the got valued at this price?
 
Ronaldo's move has shown Man United as the most stupid and wastefull of all the big clubs in europe. We spent 31 million on only two players yet we lost Stam,Cole,Johnsen, Rai, Yorke and Irwin.

Sheringham, Rai, Stam and Ronnie are asll that we replaced. I wonder now if these OT money men thinmk that out squad is big enough or good enough to survive in 3 competitions. Poor Fergie ! :mad:

I'm fecking pissed as hell about Ronaldo joining REAL (Scum) Madrid. Being a Barcelona fan, it was bad enough when Figo left for the white Devils, but Ronaldo joining the Scum is the final nail in the coffin! where is the loyalty these days?
 
Moratti just said Inter can take their pick out of Solari or Mcmanamanaman. This deal has probably sent the European Cup to the Bernebau. Anyone who thinks this is a bad deal for Real should stop kidding themselves.

Also it seems that he will net only 6 million Euros instead of 8 at Inter, and will have to pay Inter 4 million for losing the Nike contract.

There's also an ad hoc clause in the contract as an insurance for his dodgy knee: if within 3 years Ronaldo hurts his knee and has to saty out for more than 6 months, he'll have to return to Inter, and Real will get a refund back. Furthermore, if injured, he doesn't get paid.

Seems fair enough.
