Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho insists that he is not bothered by speculation linking Cristiano Ronaldo with a move away from the club.

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has insisted that he is not worried by speculation over Cristiano Ronaldo's future at the club.

Two weeks ago the forward claimed that he was "sad" due to professional reasons at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Despite subsequent rumours linking the 27-year-old with a move away from the Spanish champions, Mourinho just wants him to keep playing well.

"If Ronaldo is sad and plays like he plays, perfect for me," he told reporters. "I'll say the same thing - I coach football and my responsibility is our results.

"Ronaldo trains 100%, sometimes he does it good or not, but he's a team player, always disciplined in training - he's exemplary.

"I don't have to worry with things that are superficial and not fundamental."

Madrid resume their La Liga duties with a trip to Sevilla on Saturday.
