Madrid, June 12: After spending nine years with the venerable Real Madrid, Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly looking for lucrative contracts elsewhere.
According to Spanish newspaper Marca, the Portugal football team captain is angry with the club's offer to extend his contract, which he views as a veiled hint for him to quit, reports Sputnik news agency.
Madrid's management has offered the forward a contract whereby he could earn 25 million euros ($29.5 million) a year, while Ronaldo has insisted on a yearly salary of 30 million euros ($35.4 million).
Marca reported that Ronaldo feels he has more value than Neymar and Lionel Messi and the club should meet his demands.
Ronaldo has been with the Madrid club since 2009.
His salary for 2018 amounts to 21 million euros ($24.7 million), but Paris Saint-Germain are ready to pay him 45 million euros ($53 million).
Ronaldo is currently training with the Portuguese national squad, which is gearing up for the upcoming World Cup in Russia.
Portugal will get their World Cup campaign underway against Spain with Morocco and Iran next in line.

Ranchi, Nov 9: Bharatiya Janata Party president Jagat Prasad Nadda on Saturday asserted that if the saffron party is voted to power in Jharkhand, it will not allow tribal rights to children of infiltrator father and local Adivasi mother.
Addressing an election rally at Bishrampur in Palamu district, Nadda alleged that the JMM-led government has given shelter to Bangladeshi infiltrators and they would be driven out.
“Children of Bangladeshi infiltrator father and Adivasi mother will be denied tribal rights if the BJP is voted to power in Jharkhand. It will not allow infiltration to continue,” Nadda said.
He alleged that "corrupt people and thieves" are part of the JMM-led government in the state.
“Time has come to oust the single-engine government from Jharkhand and form a double-engine government here for all-round development,” the BJP chief said.
He said that India’s image changed globally under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“US President-elect Donald Trump describing PM Modi as his close friend reflects India’s changing image,” he said.
India ranks second in steel manufacturing and fifth in the mobile phone market globally. The budget for highways was increased by 50 per cent under Modi , he said.
Nadda claimed that the Prime Minister worked to bring tribals into the mainstream of society.
The budget for tribal welfare was increased by three times, for Eklayva model schools 21 times while around 1.5 crore toilets were built for tribals out of 11 crore toilets across the country.
Addressing another rally in Bishrampur in Palamu district, he claimed that the people of Jharkhand are fed up with the JMM-led government, which is involved in corruption and appeasement politics.
They have decided to vote for good governance and development under the leadership of Modi, he said.
The BJP chief also interacted with the doctor fraternity in the state capital Ranchi.
