Real Madrid Transfer News: Latest Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Arbeloa Rumours

Former Real Madrid legend Luis Figo has proclaimed Cristiano Ronaldo could leave the Bernabeu to join Barcelona in a switch that would replicate his own transfer from the Blaugrana to the Galacticos.

Portuguese icon Figo completed one of the most shocking deals in history when he turned his back on Barca, absconding to the Spanish capital in 2000.

The former attacker has now said Ronaldo could potentially move in the opposite direction to the Camp Nou if Luis Enrique opted to activate his release clause.

Figo told Portuguese newspaper Record (h/t Mark Brus of Metro) there is nothing to stop Ronaldo from making a hugely controversial switch to a rival such as Barca.
