The Spanish giants have both been strongly linked with the 22-year-old winger despite statements from the club that he is going nowhere. Charlton believes the player should be left alone to focus on playing for United and is becoming increasingly frustrated by other clubs refusing to back off.

"Anybody associated with Manchester United would be a little bit perturbed when a few months before the end of a very important season someone starts to make claims for him. I don't think it's correct," Charlton said.

"Ronaldo is our player and while he's under contract to us I don't think it's anybody's right to come and start the process of trying to change him into being one of their players.

"That is not the way to do business.

"We get cheesed off with it when we've got players under contract who are very happy with what they're doing and where they are."
