It remains to be seen what the response of the clubs involved is, since in recent days Bayern Munich’s interest in Cristiano Ronaldo also came to light, which the Bavarian club’s own sports director, Hasan Salihamidzic, denied a few hours later.

Everything indicates that Jorge Mendes is looking for a team for Cristiano despite the fact that the latter, at 37 years old, has recently stated that he is willing to fulfill the remaining season of his contract at United under the direction of Erik ten Hag, Ralph Rangnick’s replacement in the bench at Old Trafford.

It will miss the Champions

No one is aware that Cristiano Ronaldo was disappointed by not being able to complete his year back at United with qualification for the Champions League by finishing sixth in the Premier League and in the last years of his career he wants to stay in the elite European. He likes Ten Hag as a manager, but he wants the club to be ambitious in the transfer market.

Chelsea, third in the Premier, would give him the chance to continue playing in the Champions League, although his main target in attack is Raheem Sterling (Manchester City).

Reunion with Mourinho?

Meanwhile, Roma will play the Europa League after finishing sixth in Serie A and winning the Conference League, but there he would meet again with Mourinho, who already directed him at Real Madrid from 2010 to 2013. Although Cristiano would be willing to lower his salary , there are doubts about whether Roma could undertake the economic cost of such an operation.

United, for its part, maintains its position. Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale and is counting on him for next season. This yes, to please to the crack will have to reinforce the staff with the aim of returning to him to the ‘red devils’ to the maximum level and to compete by all the titles. In this context is the insistent interest in incorporating Barça player Frenkie de Jong.
