It is claimed that a famous figure who knows the winger well has hired the practitioner to cast a voodoo spell. ‘I have nothing against this grand club,' wrote the anonymous witch in a letter to the El Mundo newspaper. 'I am a professional and get paid very well for using my powers. 'I have been contracted so Cristiano Ronaldo suffers a serious injury. I can’t promise that will be, but I can say he will be injured for more time than he plays. 'The person who has contracted me is famous, and knows the player personally.' Madrid have shrugged off the claims, with a spokesman describing it as 'a stupid thing just like all the others Madrid comes across every day’. Danger No 9: Cristiano Ronaldo sports the shirt previously made famous by a certain Brazilian Original: Corinthians' Ronaldo Meanwhile, the former Manchester United star's namesake - Brazil legend Ronaldo - says he has no qualms about seeing Madrid's new No 9 running around in his old jersey. 'I've seen that he's taken my number and my name,' said the Corinthians striker. 'I like that. He has a name too, so he could choose what he wanted. 'Tell him he can do very well with that shirt and with that number. He is a very great player. It goes without saying how important he is and how well he plays football.' Madrid have also announced a huge new shirt sponsorship deal with gambling website Bwin believed to be worth £21million a year through to 2013. It marks an increase of about £5m a year I wonder who that could be, Slur Alex maybe although I've often felt like sticking a few pins in him myself
