According to new reports that just emerged today, Cristiano Ronaldo dumped his model girlfriend, Irina Shayk after she apparently refused to attend a surprise birthday celebration for his mum. The football superstar, 29, spent New Year’s Eve alone with his son when Irina Shayk decided not to attend the 60th birthday party. The couple rowed and the former Manchester United star – this week voted the best player in the world – decided to end his romance with the Russian beauty. Her relationship with his mum Dolores Aveiro and sisters Elma and Katia was at the centre of tensions, according to reports in Portugal. Irina, 29, sparked speculation after she stopped following the Real Madrid star on Twitter. She also chose not to attend the Fifa Ballon d’Or ceremony in Zurich on Monday when he was named the best player in the world. Her boyfriend of nearly five years was joined on stage by his four-year-old son Cristiano Jr and mum, Dolores. Ronaldo even thanked his family, teammates and supporters but made no mention of Irina.

Pepe believes it would be "a scandal" if Cristiano Ronaldo does not win the Ballon d'Or. Xavi says the Portuguese should not even be in the top three. Dino Zoff claims Manuel Neuer deserves the accolade but has no chance of winning. Jose Mourinho simply does not care about the trophy, saying it's "bad for football". When it comes to the Ballon d'Or, everyone in football has an opinion - and an agenda. Consequently, when it comes to such a subjective issue, it is often best to turn to numbers in the search for truth. Therefore, Goal has decided to lay out all of the facts and figures relating to our three nominees for the duration of the Ballon d'Or voting period (November 30, 2013 to November 21, 2014) in the hope of trying to establish the most worthy recipient of the most prestigious individual honour in the game. As already noted, the closing date does Messi no favours whatsoever, as he became the leading goalscorer in both the Champions League and La Liga after the voting ceased. However, as the statistics underline, Messi still had a remarkable year with both Barcelona and Argentina. But does the four-time winner deserve to reclaim the Ballon d'Or from Ronaldo , who, after a staggeringly prolific start to the season, now boasts a Liga-record average of 1.13 goals per game? And what of Neuer and his heroics during Germany's triumphant World Cup campaign? Should he not be recognised for the greatest demonstration to date of the way in which this 'sweeper-keeper' has revolutionised the role? Why not let the numbers help you decide? Then again, it's worth remembering the words of Fatih Terim , who once said, "Statistics are like mini-skirts: they don't reveal everything. 71 - Messi equalled Raul's all-time Champions League goal record with a double at Ajax on November 5. The Barca ace took outright possession of the record with a hat-trick against APOEL in his next outing before taking his tally to 75 with a goal against PSG on matchday 6. 54 - Ronaldo netted 54 times in just 60 appearances, including international friendlies, for club and country between November 30, 2013 and November 21, 2014. 34 - After his eight strikes in the knockout stage of the 2013-14 Champions League, Ronaldo has now scored more goals in the tournament's elimination rounds than any other player. 22 - Ronaldo equalled the record for Liga hat-tricks held by Telmo Zarra and Alfredo Di Stefano with his treble against Athletic Bilbao on October 5. The Portuguese subsequently broke the record by bagging all of his club's goals in a 3-0 win over Celta on December 6. 21 - On March 23, Messi netted a hat-trick in Barcelona's 4-3 win at Real Madrid to become the all-time leading goalscorer in El Clasico, with his treble taking his tally to 24, three more than another Argentine legend, Di Stefano. 20 - Messi racked up a grand total of 21 assists for club and country across the Ballon d'Or voting period - three more than Ronaldo. 17 - Ronaldo smashed Messi's record for goals in a single Champions League season (14) by striking 17 times during Madrid's triumphant 2013-14 campaign. 17 - Ronaldo also struck 17 times during the opening 10 rounds of the current Liga season - a new record. Even more impressively, the 29-year-old sat out one of those games. Ronaldo reached 20 goals just two matchdays later, which was also a Primera Division record. 15 - With his goal in Madrid's win at Copenhagen on December 10, 2013, Ronaldo broke the record for most goals scored by any player in the Champions League over a calendar year. 14 - Messi's aforementioned hat-trick at the Santiago Bernabeu in March also saw him draw level with Di Stefano on Clasico goals scored exclusively in Liga encounters. 12 - Messi became the leading assist-maker in Clasico history in March by setting up Andres Iniesta for the opening goal. 10 - Ten of Ronaldo's 54 goals came from penalties, which works out at 19 per cent. Some 15% of Messi's tally were spot-kicks. 9 - Neuer kept nine clean sheets in the Bundesliga before the closing date for Ballon d'Or votes. The 28-year-old racked up another four before the winter break to set a new record for the first half of a Bundesliga campaign. The German was beaten just four times in total, which was also a new milestone mark for the German top flight. 9 - Ronaldo's strike in Copenhagen in December of last year also saw him claim the goals record for a solitary Champions League group-stage campaign. However, his tally was this season matched by Luiz Adriano of Shakhtar Donetsk. 9 - With his goal against Eibar on November 22, 2014, Ronaldo became the first player to score against every single side he has faced in La Liga. 8 - Messi has made the Ballon d'Or top three for an eighth time. What's even more remarkable about this world-record feat is that he has pulled it off in consecutive seasons, with the Argentine having made the shortlist every year since 2007. 7 - Ronaldo and Messi have both featured in the FIFPro World XI a record seven times in a row, dating back to 2007. 5 - Ronaldo and Messi became the first men to score 25 goals or more in five consecutive Liga seasons during the 2013-14 campaign. 4 - Neuer shipped just four goals during the second half of the 2013-14 Bundesliga season, which was a new record for the German top flight. 3 - Ronaldo was awarded the LFP trophies for best goal, best forward and best player at the end of the 2013-14 season - a feat never before achieved by any player. 3 - Neuer claimed three winners' medals in 2014, winning the Bundesliga and the DFB-Pokal in May with Bayern Munich before lifting the biggest prize in football, the World Cup, with Germany in July. 3 - Ronaldo also collected three trophies during the Ballon d'Or 'year', claiming the Copa del Rey with Real Madrid in April (though he did not play in the final), the Champions League just over a month later and the Uefa Super Cup in August. 3 - Ronaldo equalled Messi's record of three European Golden Shoe wins by sharing this year's award with Barca striker Luis Suarez. Both the Portuguese and the former Liverpool striker hit 31 goals during the 2013-14 season. 3 - Ronaldo's 52nd-minute strike in Madrid's Champions League last 16 second-leg win at Schalke in February saw him become the first player to reach double figures in the competition in three successive campaigns. 2 - With his last-gasp penalty in Madrid's 4-1 victory over city rivals Atletico in the 2014 Champions League final, Ronaldo became the first player to net in the tournament decider for two European Cup-winning teams, having previously scored in Manchester United's triumph over Chelsea in 2008. 2 - Neuer conceded only twice in 2014-15 Bundesliga fixtures at the Allianz Arena before the winter break - a record low for the first half of a season. 2 - Messi's previously mentioned treble against Madrid in March saw the Argentine become the first player to score two Clasico hat-tricks. Interestingly, the No.10 also became the first man to score three times in one game against a side coached by Carlo Ancelotti. 1 - Neuer was awarded the Golden Glove after being voted the best goalkeeper at the 2014 World Cup. 1 - The Gelsenkirchen native is the first goalkeeper to feature in the Ballon d'Or top three since Gianluigi Buffon finished as runner-up to Italy team-mate Fabio Cannavaro in 2006.

Chelsea and Manchester City have both been heavily linked with a move for the Argentina superstar but he insists that he does not want to leave Camp Nou Lionel Messi insists has launched a scathing attack on "lies" suggesting he wants to leave Barcelona having fallen out with head coach Luis Enrique. The Argentina superstar has been heavily linked with both Manchester City and Chelsea in the past week, with the Catalans in behind-the-scenes turmoil following the sacking of the club's sporting director, Carles Puyol's departure and early elections being called. Messi and Enrique's relationship was believed to be broken beyond repair after the 27-year-old was benched against Real Sociedad - a match Barca lost 1-0 - and it is suspected that the forward was pushing for the coach to be dismissed. But Messi has hit back at such claims, insisting that he has no "rivalry" with the former Roma boss, and lashed out at sections of the media for throwing "sh*t" at the Catalan club. "I never demanded anything to stay, as I have no intention of leaving," he told Barca TV . "It is not good to look for rivalry between Luis Enrique and me, because there is none. "We must be more united than ever. They should not throw sh*t at us. We just want to achieve things for the club. "I never demanded anything to stay, as I have no intention of leaving. "It is said that my father spoke with Man City, with Chelsea. It's all lies, it's all lies ." Messi scored once as Barca ran out 3-1 winners over Atletico Madrid at Camp Nou on Sunday ahead of Monday's Ballon d'Or presentation when he is competing for the best player in the world prize with Cristiano Ronaldo and Manuel Neuer. But Messi is relaxed heading into the ceremony - which takes place on January 12 - and has praised the respective seasons of his rivals. "Whoever wins the Ballon d'Or will deserve it, whether it is Neuer or Cristiano, who had incredible year," he added.

ANDY COLE : Took a while to adjust to life at Manchester United following his move from Newcastle but went on to score 121 goals in 275 appearances, including five in a 9-0 demolition of Ipswich. ANDREI KANCHELSKIS :Cost £650,000 from Shakhtar Donetsk and was a useful match-winner for the Red Devils before moving to Everton. BRYAN ROBSON : A true midfield inspiration after joining from West Brom, Robson drove his team to success, scoring 99 goals in 461 appearances and fittingly helped end the club’s 26-year wait for a league title. BRIAN MCCLAIN : Manchester United had struggled for years to find a striker who could score 20 goals a season but McClain managed that in his first season and formed a prolific partnership with Mark Hughes. CRISTIANO RONALDO : The Portuguese arrived as a teenager AND was handed the No.7 shirt which he quickly made his own. He scored 118 goals for United, including the opener against Chelsea in the 2008 Champions League final, before being sold to Real Madrid for a record-breaking £80 million. DENIS IRWIN : Another bargain buy, Irwin joined from Oldham and rarely missed a game for the Red Devils. Brilliant in defence, he was also lethal from the penalty spot and made over 500 appearances for the club. DWIGHT YORKE : Helped United win the treble in his first SEASON after moving from Aston Villa and formed a devastated partnership up front with Andy Cole. EDWIN VAN DER SAR : Manchester United struggled to find a goalkeeper that could replace the great Peter Schmeichel for six years before Van der Sar arrived from Fulham for £2m in 2006 and made the No.1 spot his own. ERIC CANTONA : A transformative signing, Cantona famously moved from Leeds for bitter rivals United for just £1m and was the catalyst for a sustained period of success, going down as one of United’s greatest ever players. GARY PALLISTER : Formed part of one of the best Manchester United defences ever, alongside Steve Bruce, winning three Premier League titles in the process. JAAP STAM : An absolute rock at the back during his three seasons at Old Trafford and Sir Alex Ferguson later regretted his decision to sell the giant Dutchman to Lazio in 2001. MARK HUGHES : Manchester United brought him back to Old Trafford from Barcelona in 1988 for £1.5m and he was named PFA Player of the Year in the first season after his return. Scored spectacular goals and bagged 163 in 467 United appearances. NEMANJA VIDIC : Struggled initially but went on to become a brilliant defender and captain. Won five titles in eight years and was named Premier League Player of the Season in 2009. OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER : The Norwegian was the perfect IMPACT substitute, weighing in with countless crucial late goals, none more so than in the 1999 Champions League final when his stoppage-time winner sealed a remarkable comeback win. PATRICE EVRA : Like Vidic, found it tough going initially, but went on to thrive at left-back at Old Trafford, winning nine major trophies in eight years at United. PAUL INCE : The midfielder joined from West Ham for £1m and helped win two league titles before being moved on to Inter. PAUL PARKER : The full-back joined from QPR for £2m and was consistently solid before ultimately being replaced by Gary Neville. PETER SCHMEICHEL : An absolute steal, the goalkeeper joined from Brondby for £505,000 and was outstanding in goal for United, winning five Premier League titles and the Champions League. ROBIN VAN PERSIE : Signed from Arsenal, Van Persie’s 26 goals guided a distinctly underwhelming Manchester United side to the Premier League title in 2013. RIO FERDINAND : The elegant centre-back became British’s most expensive defender when he moved to Old Trafford for £32m in 2002 and his partnership with Nemanja Vidic evoked memories of Bruce-Pallister at their best. ROY KEANE :Signed from Nottingham Forest, the often controversial midfielder led United to seven Premier League titles. He famously missed the Champions League final win in 1999 but few will forget his heroics in the semi-final against Juventus that helped United book their place against Bayern Munich. RUUD VAN NISTELROOY : The Dutch striker cost £19m from PSV but more than repaid his transfer fee, scoring 150 goals in 219 appearances in his five years with the Red Devils. STEVE BRUCE : A dependable centre-back, Bruce formed a superb partnership with Pallister and also carried a significant goal threat, scoring an incredible 19 times in the 1990-91 campaign. TEDDY SHERINGHAM :The clever striker arrived from Spurs at 31 and scored some crucial goals, not least the equaliser in the 1999 Champions League final win against Bayern Munich WAYNE ROONEY : He may not be as loved by the fans as other United greats, but Rooney looks destined to become the club’s all-time record scorer and most decorated players before he departs the club.

The Dutchman has spent over €180 million on new talent since taking the reins at Old Trafford but he maintains that there are no financial stumbling blocks for the club Louis van Gaal insists "money doesn't play any role" in Manchester United 's transfer policy. United have spent over €180 million since Van Gaal's arrival at the club, acquiring the likes of Angel Di Maria, Radamel Falcao and Marcos Rojo as part of a major squad revamp, while ex-Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes completed his move to Old Trafford earlier this week. And Van Gaal says that the club will continue to spend whatever he deems necessary as he continues to reshape the playing staff at Old Trafford. "When I cannot improve my selection, then I wait," he told reporters. "And then I maybe have to wait a year more. Maybe you think that there are so many fantastic players, but it is not like that. "[However,] I don't [necessarily] prefer to wait until the summer when I can improve my selections. That I have showed with Valdes. "When we can buy a player who can improve my selection, the club shall buy. Money is not interesting. It is always quality of the players in comparison with the other players that I have. I have to compare. I have to decide. Money doesn't play any role." Van Gaal has assembled a fearsome attacking triumvirate since taking the United reins, with Falcao, Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney all vying for a starting spot. But he has promised United fans that he will improve the club's "quality" in the final third over the duration of his tenure. "Now that I coach Manchester United, I expect more attacking quality," he added. "If it is not this year, then next season or the season after that. We shall improve and you shall see it.

Gareth Bale provokes jeers from Real Madrid fans and Cristiano Ronaldo's anger by shooting instead of passing Winger faces the wrath of the crowd and team-mate for being greedy despite scoring a spectacular earlier strike and the La Liga leaders crusing to victory over Espanyol Gareth Bale provoked an angry reaction from Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid fans during his side's 3-0 victory over Espanyol at the Bernabéu. The flashpoint came in the 72nd minute, when the Welsh international ran on to Isco's pass and decided to shoot, despite the Portuguese being better placed, and rolled the ball past the post. Ronaldo was visibly furious with Bale and the supporters were equally unforgiving, jeering the former Tottenham player for selfishness. The moment is likely to add another layer of intrigue to Bale's position at Real, which has been the subject of much scrutiny in recent weeks. Various reports have suggested that Real are considering whether to cash in on the player they bought for a world record £85.3 million in the summer of 2013, with Manchester United believed to be seriously interested in signing him Real coach Carlo Ancelotti did his best to play down the incident afterwards and noted the Welshman had earlier scored a superb free kick that put Real 2-0 ahead. "Later on the fans wanted him to pass to Cristiano but forwards are determined to score when they are through on the goalkeeper," Ancelotti told a news conference. "Generosity is very important and if someone is being selfish then we will address it," added the Italian. "The supporters are very demanding when it comes to the important players and Bale is one of those. "We shouldn't blow this out of proportion. It's one moment in a football game. Relations between them (Bale and Ronaldo) and everyone are very good. We are all pursuing the same goal which is to lift Real Madrid as high as possible." The reaction to Bale's indiscretion appeared all the more curious given he had earlier scored with an unstoppable free- kick, as Real Madrid ended a two-game losing run and stay top of the Spanish league on Saturday. James Rodríguez opened the scoring after a long pass from Bale was headed back to the Colombian by Ronaldo in the 12th minute. Bale made it 2-0 16 minutes later when Espanyol goalkeeper Kiko Casilla could only watch as he rifled a left-foot free kick in off the post. The home side played with 10 men for the last 36 minutes after Fabio Coentrao was given a straight red card for a low tackle, but it barely bothered them though Ronaldo was booked for protesting the decision, and the substitute Nacho scored in the 76th with Espanyol in disarray. A moment of silence was held before the match for the 12 people killed at the Charlie Hebdo newspaper office in Paris. Madrid also paraded their Club World Cup trophy won last month before kick-off. The victory gave Madrid a four-point lead over Barcelona and Atlético, before the defending champions visit the Nou Camp on Sunday.
