Real Madrid are the current La Liga and Champions League title holders after finishing their most successful season since 1958 last campaign.
Los Blancos won the Champions League for the second consecutive time and immediately were considered the favorites to win it for the third time – but things aren’t that simple now.
That’s because Los Merengues have fallen drastically this season, so much that midfielder Toni Kroos recently admitted that now the main target is to finish inside the top four.
They are going through an even worse run than under Rafa Benitez a few years ago, and Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t doing much to help his side refind the form.
The Portugese has scored only four goals in La Liga this season, but in the Champions League he has been a different story, scoring nine goals.
The 32-year-old has made the club very clear that he feels he deserves a bumper contract, with a particular grievance that two players earn more than him.
Marca reports that those two players being Lionel Messi and Neymar – or the two Ronaldo just beat to the Ballon d’Or.
It’s easy to see why the self-proclaimed “best of all time” would have a problem with two players he was considered as being superior to earning more than he does, especially when he’s at a club like Real Madrid.
It has been previously reported that Ronaldo feels entitled to a new deal after his heroics in the Champions League last year – something that he claims to have been promised by club president Florentino Perez.
