Real Madrid will bow to Cristiano Ronaldo's demands by offering the superstar forward a bumper new contract, according to a report.
The Spanish and European champions are understood to have held off offering the 33-year-old a new deal over fears that his star qualities were waning.
Ronaldo has returned to his best form since the turn of the year by scoring 17 goals in 12 appearances, however, and Mundo Deportivo claims that fresh terms will now be discussed, taking him beyond the expiration of his current deal in 2021.
Real president Florentino Perez is said to be ready to offer the Portugal international the wage packet he is after, rumoured to be £7m more than the current £28m a year he earns at the Bernabeu.
Former Manchester United ace Ronaldo wants parity with Lionel Messi and Neymar, the latter of whom has been rumoured as a possible target for the summer.
