Manchester United has carried out its threat and reported Real Madrid to FIFA, football’s international body, claiming that they have been hounding their Portuguese star player Cristiano Ronaldo to move to the Bernabeu. FIFA says that they have received documentation from Manchester United and they are looking at it.

The player is in Austria for the Euro 2008, and the Portugal team says he will not be making any comments, but there have been recent press reports in his name claiming that he wants to make the move to Spain.

Real Madrid has made several statements praising the player’s talents over recent weeks, while his mother has been reported as saying he will be staying in Manchester.
