Gill certain of Ronaldo stay

Chief executive David Gill insists he has had no need to speak to Cristiano Ronaldo about his future at Manchester United and has reiterated the winger is not for sale. Ronaldo's future is consistently coming under the spotlight with Real Madrid linked to a move for the Portuguese. However, Gill insists he has not spoken to the world player of the year as he is, and will remain, a Red Devils player. Gill told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme: "We've never had that discussion. There's absolutely no point in having that discussion. We made it clear last year he's on a long-term contract with us and it's never come up. "He's been fantastic both on and off the pitch throughout, he's supported us in what we want to do commercially and he's been a model professional. "He is not for sale. He's a great player and he's part of our club."
