Ronaldo signs new Real Madrid contract

Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a new contract with Real Madrid.

The club television channel showed Ronaldo and club President Florentino Perez signing documents on Sunday.

The club did not disclose financial details of the new deal, but Perez said Ronaldo will remain at Real Madrid for the next five years.

The Portugal forward’s former contract was due to expire in 2015.

The 28-year-old Ronaldo has scored more than 50 goals a season for the last three years with Madrid after joining in 2009 on a then-record transfer of 93 million euros from Manchester United.

Madrid broke the record by paying Tottenham 100 million euros ($132 million) to acquire winger Gareth Bale at the close of the summer transfer window.
