"Cristiano is suffering at Real Madrid"

Iker Casillas ' agent, Santos Marquez, believes that Cristiano Ronaldo 's decision to sell his image rights to a company owned by Valencia president Peter Lim suggests that the forward is set to leave Real Madrid .

Ronaldo is under contract until 2018 but raised eyebrows on June 29 when he announced that he had signed a deal with Mint Media.

Marquez believes that the agreement is bad news for Los Blancos, as he is viewing it as a sign that the Portugal international is dissatisfied with club president Florentino Perez and is now preparing his Madrid exit.

"One day [Perez] will need to explain why Cristiano works for another company outside of Real Madrid," the agent told AS.

"Imagine Cristiano generating €40 million elsewhere and giving it to Peter Lim, Valencia’s owner. It ends up in Valencia’s coffers and that’s deplorable...

"Will anyone speak out and ask Florentino why Cristiano has sold his image rights to Peter Lim?

"That’s not normal; it suggests that Cristiano is planning to leave. He has been suffering for some time now"


"[Perez] hasn’t uttered one single truth in years. What he says is his truth, and that is the same as preaching.

"He kicked out the best people he has ever known. Everyone must realise that. It all turned ugly for [Fernando] Hierro, Raul, [Vicente] Del Bosque...  

"There’s something not right about that. It’s as though everyone at this club is wrong and he never is.

"Madrid was always characterised as being a club which was owned by its club members but he has turned it into a serfdom.

"Those statutes he put in so that he can perpetually be president....

"He’s set it all up so that the others are slaves and cannot act as the club members. They have to shut up and pay up.
