Zidane rules out Ronaldo exit amid United, PSG talk

Published Jan. 8, 2016 9:40 a.m. ET

Zinedine Zidane has told Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain that they have no chance of signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid.

Both United and PSG have been monitoring Ronaldo's situation at Madrid amid reports that he was unhappy during Rafa Benitez's reign.

But Zidane, who replaced Rafa Benitez as manager after the Spaniard's sacking on Monday, insists the Portugal international is the "soul" in his Madrid side.

"Cristiano Ronaldo is non-transferable," Zidane said at his press conference on Friday.

"He's the soul of this team. While he's here, he won't leave.

"Cristiano will play on the wings, how he's most comfortable. I won't tell him much. I want him to be happy."
