Q: Ronaldo, you did a very good job in the World Cup and then you decided it  was time for a change. Why did you choose Real Madrid?
R: Because it is the best squad27 at the world. True that I had a good performance at the World Cup, but then I decided I wanted to be happy in a club that could help me, so that it was not only about me helping the squad. Madrid was the best choice to do that.

Q: You have a lot of friends at Real like Robert Carlos, Figo, Zidane. Has your transfer to Real been influenced by this fact?
R: Yes, I have lots of friends that either are playing or have played in Real, and all of them have spoken wonderful things about the Club. Roberto, Figo, Raúl are all great players that I know personally. I hope the rest of the team will be happy too because I just want to be one more player in Real.

Q: Did you ever think that the negotiations with Inter would not succeed?
R: It seemed to me that it was never going to happen. There was a lot of pressure on me from Milan people, but I trusted President Pérez29 at all times and everything worked out just fine eventually. We have been through difficult moments, but my will was always to join Madrid. I have always been firm about my decision to join this Club. Now all that is behind and I just want to make all Madrid fans happy with my play and goals.

Q: How do you feel physically?
R: I have to do more work because I have trained by myself most of the time. I have to talk with the physical trainer and the coach.

Q: Finally what is your message for Real Madrid fans?
R: I just want to thank them for their affection30. I am going to do my best to make them happy. I want them to enjoy the football played by the team.

问：罗纳尔多，你在世界杯上取得了成功，然后你就决定要换一个球队。你为什么选择皇马队？
罗：因为皇马是世界上最好的球队。不错，我在世界杯上表现不错，但是我想呆在一个能够帮助我、让我开心的队里，而不仅仅只是我帮助球队。马德里队是实现这一目标的最好选择。

问：在皇马你有许多好朋友， 如卡洛斯、菲戈、齐达内。你的转会受到这一事实的影响吗？
罗：是的，在皇马我有许多朋友，有的正在皇马踢球，有的曾经在皇马踢过球，他们都高度评价了这个俱乐部。卡洛斯、菲戈、劳尔都是我熟悉的伟大球员。我也希望其他的队友开心，因为我只想在皇马当一个普通队员。

问：你是否想过同国际米兰队没法谈到一块儿？
