BUY-OUT CUT FOR RONALDO
PORTUGAL superstar Cristiano Ronaldo’s buy-out clause at Real Madrid has been reduced from €1billion (£884million) to €120m (£106m), according to a report from Spain.
OK Diario has reported that the reduction, initially down to €400m (£354m) and then €120m, was agreed between Real and Ronaldo — who is preparing to face Uruguay in the last 16 of the World Cup — earlier this year to facilitate a possible summer sale. The cut buy-out clause does not apply to Barcelona or any other clubs in Spain, or Paris Saint-Germain.
