The defender has declared that he hopes him to be with the Spanish side next year...Pepe has yet again reiterated his belief that Cristiano Ronaldo will soon join Real Madrid by saying that he wants to play in the Bernabeu.
The Manchester United winger has been linked with a move to the Spanish
capital for some time now and could well leave England this summer.
Pepe told Marca that his Portuguese team-mate "wants to play in the Santiago Bernabeu" and that he thinks he will join the club.
"I would love Cristiano to join Madrid. He has already said in the press that he wants to come and I hope that next year he is with us," he said.
Aside from Ronaldo, Pepe spoke about two of his current team-mates; Julien Faubert and Raul, the former of whom stepped on his hand last weekend and injured him.
The defender says that he "did not intend to hurt me and apologised later" and that there is "no problem" before admitting "it is difficult to play for Real Madrid and he must be given time to settle in".
He then went on to praise his captain Raul and spoke about the defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League.
"For me, Raul is a player to look up to. If he is selected for the national team one must congratulate him because what he has done is not easy and he would defend Spain as if it were his own son," he said.
"Liverpool played a very strong game against us. They had chances and took them whilst we were wasteful and paid for it."
Finally, the Portugal international gave his opinion on the upcoming elections, saying that the new president has to "give stability and make Real Madrid what it once was".
He singled out Florentino Perez for praise too, saying "many people talk about Florentino Perez, he did great work for the team and bought stability to the club".
