Predrag Mijatovic has quashed rumours that Real Madrid have already reached an agreement with Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Primera Liga champions have been chasing the Manchester United winger for some time, with hardly a day going by without the Portuguese ace being linked with a switch to the Spanish capital.

Real have done little to dampen the furore surrounding the proposed record-breaking deal, but sporting director Mijatovic insists that no agreement between the two parties has been put in place.

"He is an objective, but we cannot do anything if his club do not want to part with him," the former Real striker admitted in Diario de Noticias.

"At this time we do not have anything with the player."

Rules

United have grown increasingly restless at the constant speculation surrounding their star turn, even threatening to report their Spanish counterparts to Fifa should they refuse to back down in relentless attempts to unsettle the Portugal international.

Real president Ramon Calderon assured the Red Devils during the week that they were "not going to influence any player to break their contractual relationship", and Mijatovic has also insisted that the club have no intention of breaking transfer regulations.

"At this moment Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best in the world, a fantastic player and it is clear that we are interested," he said.

"But he has a team and never will we go against the rules of Fifa and Uefa."
