Real Madrid coach Wanderley Luxemburgo would like to sign
Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese international has been linked with Los Merengues in recent weeks as the Spanish giants search for a replacement for Luis Figo, who looks certain to leave the club at the end of the current season.
They have also been linked with Betis winger Joaquin Sanchez and the Madrid coach has made it clear he would be happy to have the pair of them working under his charge.
"Of course I like players such as Joaquin or Cristiano Ronaldo," he said on Real Madrid television.
Luxemburgo was also critical of the duo's current management, claiming neither Sir Alex Ferguson at
Manchester United or Lorenzo Serra Ferrer at Betis are getting the best out of the players.
"I believe that leaving them to play out on the wing limits their capacity to perform," he said, using Betis as an example.
"Who is more skilful, Joaquin or (Ricardo) Oliveira? Joaquin.
"However, who has scored most goals? Oliveira (with 19 this season).
"That is because he plays more centrally and is not wasted on the wing. I like my strikers to participate in the game from the wings," said Luxemburgo.
