"I would sincerely like the false reports to stop and to be left a little in peace," said Ronaldo, as quoted by Portuguese sports newspaper A Bola.

"Reports that I have sought to create conflicts between myself and Real Madrid are absolutely false," added the 30-year-old star. 

"I am very happy at the best club in the world and very focused and confident of a new season full of successes."
