The head coach of "Newcastle" Eddie Howe said that his team does not apply for the acquisition of the Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo.
"We are looking at team development in the long term. At the moment, we have quite an aged squad, so we need to invest more in young players to lower the average age.
So, it's not the transfer we're counting on, but that doesn't mean we're underestimating Ronaldo. He is an outstanding player, just look at his stats. He scored a lot of important goals last season. There is no doubt about Ronaldo's level," Daily Mail quoted Howe as saying.
