Yesterday Manchester United confirmed that they have reported Real Madrid to FIFA over Cristiano Ronaldo, but what can be done about it?
I am not expecting Real Madrid to be thrown out of the Champion's League or anything serious to be done, even though I think it should be done because it isnt the first time they have done this. I am expecting Real Madrid to be given a warning, possibly even a fine but with the amount they are thought to be offering for Ronaldo, a fine is hardly going to bother them.
Today Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon says Manchester United have 'no evidence' to show Real Madrid have acted improperly.

"They don't have any evidence because nothing has happened," Calderon told reporters in Spain. "All there is is what the papers say and rumours that the player seems to want to leave.
"But at the moment a move is impossible because United don't want to sell him.
"It's United's right (to complain), but we haven't done anything and we are not going to do anything. It's a matter between the player and his club."

Whilst all this has been happening Ronaldo's brother has spoken on a radio station saying that Ronaldo wants to play for Real Madrid, and apparently Ronaldo had given him full permission to say this.
Ronaldo's mum has said that he will be staying at United, David Gill and Sir Alex Ferguson have said that Ronaldo will be staying.
The only person who has't come out to the press (I don't count the Brazilian website because I think that was made up) and said what he wants to do is Ronaldo himself.

Here is what the Official Club Statement said:
"On May 27 Manchester United made clear its intention to report Real Madrid to FIFA if it continued to involve itself in the future of Ronaldo,"
"Unfortunately Real Madrid has not kept its own counsel and the club feels it has no alternative but to make a formal complaint to the world governing body."

What Punishment Would I Like To See Handed To Real Madrid?
Personally I would like FIFA to block the transfer and a massive fine, 10-15 million pounds will do.
What punishment would you like to see handed to them? I could be a fine, or it could be that they were deducted points or thrown out of the Champion's League.
