River Plate's coach confirmed that he offered Cristiano Ronaldo: “He felt appreciated”

As long as Cristiano's future was uncertain and seemed far from Nassr, some teams expressed their interest in getting the signature of one of the greatest footballers of all time.

These include River Plate, who relied on the strength of participation in the World Club Championship, a competition in which Lionel Messi is engaged, but CR7 does not.

A confirmation of this proposal came from Marcelo Gallardo, River Plate's coach.

River Plate's coach confirmed that he offered Cristiano Ronaldo: “He felt appreciated”

“Cristiano Ronaldo has considered my offer to play for River Plate at the World Club Championship. I was fortunate to train him in a Saudi Arabia match (No – the country's all -standard match) and I met a great professional and a very good person. I created a relationship.

We talked to him in mid -March, informally, through a common friend, to find out if he intends to play. Not only did he feel recognized, but also valued. He evaluated the proposal, he thought, but he told me he had to prepare for the next season, ”said Gallardo, according to Abola.P.

Gallardo, whom a match with Monterrey (June 22, 04:00) awaits in the US, also commented on the sale of Mastantuono, a 17 -year -old talent, at Real Madrid.

“The times have changed. Everything has gained an extraordinary dimension. An 11-year-old player already has videos on social networks. It is a bubble that is constantly increased. You have to be prepared and be supported by the family.

The only thing I want is that Mastantuono forget about everything outside the field and play, this being the thing he does best. Our sports project this year also included it, but we must resign.

I have to focus on what I have and how things work. Of course, I have to reset and transform certain things. I think of Saturday's match (No – with Monterrey), but also in the future. It's my job, “said the coach.
