Middlesbrough's Tuncay hopes to remain in England (0 commentsComments)

• 'Football in England takes over your life, I am happy'
• Chelsea among clubs interested in Turkish international

Middlesbrough have received offers from England, Spain, Germany and Turkey for their Turkey international forward Tuncay but no one has yet matched their undisclosed asking price.

Tuncay has been told he can leave the recently relegated Teesside club but wants to remain in England. His former club, Fenerbahce are keen to take him back to Istanbul but Tuncay is reluctant.

"Football in England takes over your life, I am happy," he said. "I want to play in England for another three years. I enjoy England and don't want to return to Turkey at the moment. If I did return it would be for Fenerbahce but I don't feel yet ready to go back to Istanbul."

Chelsea made an inquiry for Tuncay last December and Aston Villa have also expressed an interest.

Meanwhile, Middlesbrough have signed Danny Coyne from Tranmere Rovers on a free transfer. The goalkeeper, who will be 36 in August, will serve as cover for Brad Jones. Coyne replaces Ross Turnbull, who joined Chelsea last week.

Ronaldo greeted by 80,000 Madrid fans (0 commentsComments)

• Real fans cram into Bernabéu to greet £80m signing
• 'I have made my childhood dream a reality' says Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo has been presented to the world as a Real Madrid player this evening, in front of 80,000 fans at the Bernabèu.

The Portuguese winger, wearing the No 9 jersey once worn by Madrid great Alfredo di Stefano, was greeted rapturously by the packed stadium. Supporters had been queuing outside the Bernabéu for much of the day in order to gain access to the brief ceremony.

With the pitch currently being relaid, Ronaldo emerged from the tunnel onto a lime green carpet and made his way to a stage on which Florentino Perez, the Real owner, Di Stefano and the former Portugal and Real Madrid striker Eusebio waited. On his arrival Ronaldo made a brief speech, before touring the pitch, waving to fans.

""I am just so happy to be here," he said. "For me, I have made my childhood dream a reality, which was nothing less than playing for Real Madrid. I didn't expect a jam-packed stadium - this is truly impressive."

The £80m signing put pen to paper on a six-year contract this afternoon. "This is a spectacular day. I am very happy. I am anxious to go through with it and to start playing for this great team," he told the Real website today. "To me this is a dream come true. I've stated several times that my intention was always to play for Real Madrid. I wanted to be here, at this club, and do whatever I can to help the team."
