Ronaldo Now Worlds Richest And Higest Paid Footballer [SEE PHOTOS]

Man of the moment: Bale scored in his
first game for Real
The restoration of Ronaldo as Real’s most
lucrative property could help Bale in his
battle for acceptance in the Real Madrid
dressing room. Ronaldo’s reaction to the
new signing has been mixed ever since
Bale’s move was first mooted in July.
When asked what he thought about the
potential signing of Bale, Ronaldo said: ‘I
have my opinion but I am not going to
give it publicly. I think the players we
have signed already are very good. They
are Spanish and know the league.’
There was a warm, if slightly staged,
welcome on Wednesday when Bale
trained for the first time with his new
team-mates. Ronaldo met Bale in the
club’s car-park, shook him by the hand
and asked how he was. On Friday,
however, there was another reminder of
who is boss when Ronaldo was pictured
going in late and studs-up on Bale in a
training drill.
The two men both scored in their first
game as team-mates on Saturday night
in the 2-2 draw against Villarreal and the
Welshman now prepares for his first taste
of Champions League action since the
2010-11 season alongside Ronaldo,
whom he faced the last time he played in
the Champions League.
Tottenham took on Real Madrid in April
2011, losing the first leg in the Bernabeu
4-0 and the return at White Hart Lane
1-0. Those two games were the only time
Ronaldo and Bale have played against
each other and now they prepare to join
forces against Galatasaray, who are
struggling in the Turkish League.
Didier Drogba scored for the Turkish
champions on Friday in a 1-1 draw
against Antalyaspor. The result left them
seventh in the table ahead of the visit of
Bale and Ronaldo to the Turk Telekom
arena.
