£80 million bargain: Cristiano Ronaldo completes a sensational century for Real Madrid

Cristiano Ronaldo on Wednesday night put his name into Real Madrid folklore as he notched up his hundredth strike for the Galactico's in just 105 games, a scoring ratio that is beyond most of the great players to grace the game.

His move from Manchester United simply shook the world of football and many questioned whether any footballer is ever worth £80 million, well perhaps the exception here could be Ronaldo. In the current market we have seen players like Andy Carroll and Fernando Torres sell for extravagant amounts of money, and even though they have talent, they are nowhere near the same league as Ronaldo. T-Shirt sales, goal return and his sheer image in football, have near enough payed back his huge price tag, while Carroll and Torres have barely lived up to a minimal amount of there huge price tags.

It may possibly be the most expensive bargain in football history, but with Real Madrid's seemingly certain signing of Brazilian prodigy Neymar, perhaps Real Madrid are lining up yet another expensive bargain to compete with the might of Barcelona.



'100 goals in 105 games, is the stuff of legends, and i'm sure he has paid back Real Madrid his £80 million price tag'
