Cristiano Ronaldo transfer speculation is rife again even though the transfer window only closed at the start of September and Real Madrid won’t release the world’s No. 1 footballer until next summer (at the earliest).
As befits a player of his caliber, Ronaldo is being most closely linked with two mega-rich clubs: his former team, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain.
Well Barcelona fans, the unthinkable has happened. OK, that’s a little over dramatic, but Lionel Messi is injured.

If you haven’t watched a single minute of soccer in your life, you still know who David Beckham is – even if you don't know who David Beckham's son is. That’s the status he has raised himself to, and it was his career in soccer that allowed him to reach it.
It has been a long road for Ronaldinho. Yet, the two-time FIFA World Player of the Year might be facing one of his toughest ever challenges in his second return to Brazil. The newest trial posed to Ronaldinho is to turn an apathetic Fluminense squad back into a winning club.
For Pete's sake, Neymar, do your taxes.
The Brazilian striker has had assets totalling $47.75 million frozen by a Brazilian court due to tax evasion charges.
Neymar makes about $14 million in salary and $17 million in endorsements. That is enough money for someone to live on even if he pays his taxes.
Well, the rivalry between the two best footballers in the world has taken a turn for the more intense.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo had a heated confrontation on the pitch during a recent Classico. Harsh words were exchanged. Gestures were used in an angry manner. Not surprising from two of the most competitive people on the planet, but goodness guys there were children watching.
When Real Madrid played Espanyol two weekends ago, no one expected anything other than a commanding Madrid victory, and that’s exactly what happened. No one player was a bigger manifestation of that dominance than Cristiano Ronaldo. He scored 5 goals that day, ending the season’s first prematurely controversial goal drought at just 2 games. He would go on to score a hat trick three days later in the Champions League.
Playing like Cristiano Ronaldo may seem like an impossible thing to teach, and in many ways it probably is. You and I don’t have the talent, speed and athleticism of Cristiano Ronaldo, so what hope do we have of ever playing like him? Well, more than you might think. We are going to tell you how to play like Cristiano Ronaldo. Or, at least, try to play like Ronaldo. And, make no mistake, “try” is going to be the operative word here.
What Position You Should Play
Major League Soccer take notice – Chelsea’s John Terry may be set to transfer from Stamford Bridge at the end of this season.
Last season Terry was regarded by many as one of the top defenders in the Premier League. Despite his age and history of injuries, the captain has experienced a renaissance during Jose Mourinho’s second stint at Chelsea manager, leading the west London club to the league cup and Premier League double.
Chicharito Hernandez has opened his Bundesliga account. The Mexican striker scored his second goal for Bayer Leverkusen (he got his first in the Champions League last week) against Mainz Wednesday.
