Madrid to offer Ronaldo bumper five-year deal

The 31-year-old will stay at the Spanish giants until 2021 if negotiations run smoothly between his agent and club president

Cristiano Ronaldo will be offered a new five-year deal which would see the Portuguese star earning a staggering €23m a year until the age of 36, according to reports.

The player’s agent Jorge Mendes is currently in discussions with club president Florentino Perez about a renewed contract, claims Sport, and if negotiations are successful Ronaldo will remain at the club until 2021.

The Spanish newspaper reports that Perez initially wanted the club icon to sign a new two-year deal but has been persuaded by Mendes to extend the offer by a further three years.

Ronaldo’s existing deal is due to expire in June 2018, but he is ready to commit his long-term future to Madrid.
