Jorge Mendes has opened up on his relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, claiming they are still 'close' despite cutting ties in a professional capacity last year.
Ronaldo reportedly split from his long-serving agent after a disagreement over his bombshell Piers Morgan interview - which led to his bitter Manchester United exit.
Additionally, Ronaldo is said to have fallen out with Mendes after demanding the super agent secure him a deal with Bayern Munich or Chelsea last summer.
Once Mendes failed to deliver a deal with either club, Ronaldo - who ended up signing for Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr - terminated their partnership.
