Zidane Finally Reveals When Cristiano Ronaldo Will Return To Club

Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane, has confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will return this Saturday.

Ronaldo opted not to speak to reporters after making a court appearance in Madrid over a tax evasion case on Monday.

Prosecutors allege the 32-year-old, who denies any wrongdoing, has evaded €14.7million in taxes relating to his image rights between 2011 and 2014.

Instead, Inaki Torres of his management company Gestifute, spoke on his behalf, insisting “everything is in order” with the proceedings.

Madrid face MLS All-Stars to conclude their tour of the United States, before returning to Europe to prepare for their Super Cup meeting with Ronaldo’s former club Manchester United in Skopje next Tuesday.

“If he had spoken, there would also be comments. The important thing is what he said to me. He is on holiday and he’s calm,” Zidane told a media conference.

“He’ll be with us on the fifth [of August] and I hope that, after that day, this topic is closed.

“I don’t believe these things hurt him. He’s happy because it’s over. Now he’s calm about the topic of football, he wants to play and he’ll be with us on the fifth.”
