United best place for Ronaldo - Becks

Former England captain David Beckham has advised Cristiano Ronaldo to stay at Manchester United for the good of his career.

The Portugal winger has been linked with both Real Madrid - Beckham's club until the end of the season when he will move to Major League Soccer with the Los Angeles Galaxy - and Barcelona in recent months.

"He is at the right club. He is being looked after by a manager who knows how to look after someone who has been through what he has," the former United midfielder told the Sunday Express. "I may not have got through the things I did without the United manager, the players and the fans."

After last summer's World Cup Ronaldo was heavily criticised for the part he played in getting United team-mate Wayne Rooney sent off during England's quarter-final defeat against Portugal.

Beckham received similar treatment after his sending-off at the 1998 World Cup.
