Portuguese scored 200th Los Blancos goal on Wednesday night.
Real Madrid assistant manager Aitor Karanka has claimed that the Santiago Bernabeu is the “ideal place” for playmaker Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portugal international has been the subject of intense speculation of late linking the player with an emotional return to former club Manchester United at the end of the season.
Ronaldo, 28, left Old Trafford for the Spanish capital in the summer of 2009 in a world-record transfer worth £80 million.
However, with the attacker’s current contract at Madrid due to expire at the end of May 2015 and no new talks having taken place as yet between the player and the club about extending his deal in Spain, rumours have been circulating that Ronaldo will not be at Madrid next season.
Karanka, though, has dismissed those stories and instead claimed that the Portuguese is at the right club.
“He will keep getting better. Here is the ideal place and for Real Madrid it is great to have him,” said Karanka.
Ronaldo netted the 200th goal of his Madrid career in just his 197th match in all competitions against Malaga on Wednesday night.
