World Cup Pictures : Cristiano Ronaldo
Real Madrid winger Cristiano Ronaldo has confessed he would be proud to see Spain and Portugal’s Iberian bid to host World Cup 2018 be successful.
CR7 was expected to be in Zurich backing his nation’s proposal, but an ankle injury has forced him to remain with Los Blancos to undergo treatment.
However, he wanted to issue a message of support to the bid from the Spanish capital, saying: “I would to be in Zurich with all of you, but as you know this has been impossible.
“Portugal and Spain are two brotherly countries, and I have a tremendous pride that both can jointly organise World Cup 2018. Here in Spain I have some teammates who, like me, also hope that this dream can become a reality.”
Ronaldo made his comments to Real Madrid’s official website, with FIFA’s Executive Committee making their final decision this afternoon in the Swiss city.
