Cristiano Ronaldo was reportedly interested in joining Chelsea when Todd Boehly became the new owner in the summer. Thomas Tuchel, the manager at the time, was not a fan. The club did not pursue the Portuguese legend as a result.
Graham Potter has replaced Tuchel as head coach, which means Boehly might rekindle his interest in United’s top free agent. Ronaldo’s future at Old Trafford is now uncertain as he departed the field against Tottenham Hotspur before the final whistle.
According to the sources, Chelsea might extend a temporary contract to Ronaldo in January to help him leave Old Trafford. Additionally, it is anticipated that within the next 48 hours, Ronaldo and United will talk about finding a resolution to the ongoing transfer saga. Ronaldo has come under fire for his behavior ever since the incident earlier this week. Gary Neville, a former United player, said that the matter must come to a close as soon as possible.
Neville added: “When you look at whether Ronaldo should be selected, which is obviously Ronaldo’s main problem at this moment in time – that he’s not playing – as great a player as he’s been, Manchester United are better without him.
“Erik ten Hag knows that, so I think the only thing the club and Ronaldo can do is get together in this next week or so and end the relationship. Cristiano is too good a player, too fantastic a character and the club have got to move on.”
Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is currently in the news
The Portuguese international had a challenging start to the season and had been struggling for some time before his outburst against Tottenham. He hasn’t been the only forward to have trouble this season, in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea, Jadon Sancho had another bad outing.
After the striker rushed off the field during Wednesday’s 2-0 home victory against Tottenham instead of coming on as a late substitution, Ten Hag suspended Ronaldo. Before inviting Ronaldo back into first-team practice on Monday, Ten Hag wants to hear him express regret.
Cristiano Ronaldo, a forward for Manchester United, has spoken out following his exclusion from the team’s match against Chelsea in the upcoming Premier League. In light of Ronaldo’s theatrics against Tottenham Hotspur, where he left the field before the game was over, Manchester United decided to bench him for the match on Saturday.
Ronaldo’s antics attracted considerable criticism from past players and supporters over what is turning out to be a full-blown issue at Old Trafford. He wasn’t used as a replacement by manager Erik ten Hag. In the meantime, Ronaldo released a statement on his social media pages saying that although he strives to live and play with respect, there are moments when the pressure of the situation gets the better of him.
