Real Madrid are in full swing trying to lure Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United but according to their star midfield playmaker Wesley Sneijder, the 23-year old Portuguese international winger's entry into the equation at the Bernabeu could upset the dressing room coherence.

It is understandable that Ronaldo shall command a huge weekly wage and would almost certainly earn more than anyone in the current Real Madrid set-up. This could set off ego clash and that would be reminiscent of the Galacticos era and destabilize the club.

Dutch star Wesley Sneijder draws attention to this part of the Ronaldo equation while talking to the Madrid based Spanish sports daily AS. The former Ajax Amsterdam youngster said:

"It would not matter to me, but I know that there are other players that would not like that.

"But I do not want to say much because every day there is different news. Cristiano is a great player with incredible quality and if he joins Madrid then he will be welcomed.

"We cannot comment on it now because to speak highly of him would be slightly disrespectful to the players that are already here and have shown their class.

"There are already similar players to him here, like (Arjen) Robben and Robinho. It is clear that he would be a useful acquisition, but also maintaining the stability within the squad is important.

"I do not think that Madrid need to sign anyone. In the final games of last season we were very solid and the team showed it has grown a lot. Maybe the only thing we do need is to sign a forward.

"This squad is strong and next term we will become even better. But I suppose that if you bring in a player with great quality it could be good for the team."

Whatever he says is true but the fact is that Real president Ramon Calderon and the rest of his boardroom legions are ready to take the gamble.
