The girlfriend of Real Madrid keeper Iker Casillas, Sara Carbonero, has hit out at star striker Cristiano Ronaldo for being "selfish".
"Ronaldo has always been like that, selfish and an individualist on the pitch and Real Madrid signed him like that," Carbonero, a sports journalist, told popular daytime chat show "Ana Rosa" on Telecinco, the private television station she works for.
"The only problem is that he was bought for 96 million euros so when he does things wrong, he can't be forgiven."
The 25-year-old Portuguese international, the world's most expensive player, had a successful start to his first season with Real in 2009 before it was curbed by an ankle injury from mid-October to late November.
Ronaldo still finished the club's second most prolific goalscorer in the league last season. He had an impressive tally of 26 goals, only one behind teammate Gonzalo Higuain's 27.
