Scholes: "Cristiano Ronaldo got transferred to Real Madrid but he didn't stop scoring goals. He has been brilliant at Manchester United and he's doing the same at Real Madrid. Cristiano Ronaldo has reached a different level from the rest", noted the English player.

Paul Scholes also mentioned Luis Nani, who he considers to have matured a lot as a player over the last few seasons, mostly due to Sir Alex Ferguson's influence. As many people already know, Scholes is not a man of many words, so before finishing his short statements to the press, he still shared his view on Cristiano Ronaldo's market value, just in case any club is still thinking about taking the Portuguese from the Santiago Bernabéu.

Scholes: "Cristiano Ronaldo keeps performing at a top level and that has allowed him to raise his own price. It's possible that he's now worth more than before, from when he was still playing at Manchester United."
