BREAKING: Cristiano Ronaldo blocks star player to Real Madrid move as he prefers the signing of Premier league star

​Mauro Icardi has given up on his Real Madrid dream after Cristiano Ronaldo lobbied his club to not pursue the attacker, according to Don Balon. 

As a result of Ronaldo's disinterest in having Icardi join the Bernabeu, the Inter Milan man is considering signing a new long-term deal with the Serie A side.

But while Madrid president Florentino Perez may have to abandon his pursuit of Icardi, the report states he will still target Tottenham's Harry Kane, a player Ronaldo is fine with seeing arrive.
