MADRID, June 13: Real Madrid President Lorenzo Sanz has said his club were considering signing star striker Ronaldo from Barcelona. “If Inter don’t go ahead, we’re interested,” said Sanz.

Inter Milan became hot favourites to buy the Brazilian after negotiations between the players’ agents and Barcelona broke down two weeks ago.

Earlier this week, Sanz withdrew an offer to serve as intermediary for Inter after FIFA ruled that the Italian side cannot buy Ronaldo by paying the 4.5 billion peseta ($ 30.9 million) `withdrawal clause’ stipulated in his contract, as a Spanish club would.
