Neville Backs Ronaldo

Manchester United captain Gary Neville is confident Cristiano Ronaldo will resist all interest from Real Madrid.

"The adulation he receives, everything he would want is there.

"The manager's made his position clear, so I don't see a problem with that."

"These things always happen when players are away on international duty and are from obscure sources," the England right-back said.

"He's focused completely on doing well for Portugal.
