Ronaldo calls United
June 26, 2008
Ronaldo, 23, has given United fans the news they most wanted by informing the club he would be going straight on holiday and would return, as instructed, for pre-season training.
His call makes it clear Ronaldo does not envisage any move to Real Madrid in the coming weeks.
The player was told he must be back at United three weeks from the day Portugal’s interest in Euro 2008 ended - July 10 - and he has said he will be there.
Ronaldo initially claimed he would return to Manchester this week for an exploratory ankle op.

Henry opens door to America
June 26, 2008
Thierry Henry has opened up the doors to join David Beckham in America. Henry who has struggled with form in Spain said he was happy for now but in the future it’s a big possibility.
Henry said…
“I love America. I love it here. And whenever I come here, I feel free. Hopefully, one day. You never know what’s going to happen. But at the moment, I’m still over there. I’m here on vacation, enjoying the town. It’s an amazing town. I love New York. It’s not the first time I say it. I come here quite often. It’s pretty nice. Sometimes I do get recognised, but I feel free when I’m here, so that’s the most important thing. I love it.”
Thierry would be a great addition to MLS and he would help Beckham in trying to raise the game in America.
