Carlo Ancelotti says he is "100 per cent certain" that Cristiano Ronaldo will not leave Real Madrid to rejoin Manchester United next summer.

The Portuguese forward has scored an incredible 20 goals in just 13 appearances in all competitions this season, and had previously said that he would consider rejoining United, who he left for £80m to join Real in 2009.

But Ancelotti told The Sun: "Everyone can be changed and substituted but Ronaldo is now the best in the world and it [would mean] Madrid lose the best player, which is a huge loss.

"But this won't happen - because Ronaldo will go to the end of his career at Real Madrid. I'm 100% certain he will be here next season not at Manchester United, 100%.

"He's happy here, he's loved here by everyone. It's a perfect relationship at this moment so I don't think it will change. Ronaldo will finish his career here."
