Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to leave Real Madrid this summer

Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to leave Real Madrid this summer, according to a report in Portugal.

A Bola’s front page on Friday led with their story which claims that the former Manchester United forward is ‘outraged’ after being accused of evading €14.7 million (£13m) in tax by Spanish prosecutors.

The report also claims that Ronaldo’s decision to leave the Spanish champions is ‘irreversible’ and the player has already informed Madrid president Florentino Perez of his desire to quit.

Earlier this week, the prosecutor’s office in Madrid confirmed that a lawsuit has been filed against the 32-year-old.

Ronaldo has since been asked about the charges levied against him and replied: ‘I have a clear conscience.’

Madrid have also released a statement confirming that they have ‘full confidence’ in the Portuguese forward being able to prove his innocence.

The prosecutor’s office in Madrid is accusing Ronaldo of using a ‘business structure’ to hide the income received from image rights between 2011 and 2014.

Ronaldo is currently on international duty with Portugal as the national team are making their final preparations for this summer’s Confederations Cup.

The 32-year-old signed a five-year contract extension in November and helped guide Madrid to the La Liga title and the Champions League last season.
