Living a footballer's dream

After weeks of speculation, it appears the world's best footballer, Portuguese international Cristiano Ronaldo wants to move to Spanish champions Real Madrid. He said he has nothing more to look forward to having led Manchester United to both the domestic and European club championships this season. He added that it is his lifelong dream to play for Madrid.

He's rumored to have been offered a staggering GBP 300,000 (USD 586,000) a week net-after-tax deal by the Spanish giants. Should Man United decided to sell the winger, reports suggest Real Madrid is willing to pay up to EUR 100M for the transfer fee.

Imagine CR7's world:
You're the world's best player. You've a supermodel for a girlfriend. You've won domestic and European titles. You're about to get paid more than half-a-million dollars a week. And you have the top 2 football clubs in the world fighting for your services. Not bad for a 23-year-old.

Really, that's all a footballer can ever dream of.
