Ronaldo wants to leave Man United - reports (News24)

Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United this summer if the Premier League club receive an appropriate offer, according to multiple reports on ...

Ronaldo won three Premier League titles and the Champions League during six trophy-laden years with United before leaving for Real Madrid in 2009 and Juventus in 2018, collecting more trophies at both clubs. The 37-year-old Portugal forward returned to Old Trafford from Juventus last summer but despite being United's top scorer last season, and third in the Premier League, the campaign was overall disappointing. Manchester United are adamant Ronaldo, who scored 24 goals in all competitions, is not for sale, according to reports, with new manager Erik ten Hag keen to work with him.

Lewandowski leads 5 possible Cristiano Ronaldo replacements ... (United In Focus)

Having won Europe's premier club competition five times, the Champions League's all-time top scorer doesn't fancy a year in the Europa League.

The young French forward has been heavily linked with a move to mega-rich Newcastle United in the last two transfer windows, but as of yet a move to Tyneside hasn’t come to fruition as a deal hasn’t been agreed. With the Brazilian’s future in the French capital looking uncertain, Manchester United are inevitably one of the big clubs to be linked with a move for the Paris Saint Germain star. The former Borussia Dortmund marksman currently has no intention of extending his deal and he has his heart set on a move to the Nou Camp. Lewandowski, who has scored 344 goals in 375 games for the Bavarians, has a year left to run on his contract with the Bundesliga giants. The development in Ronaldo’s future comes as a hammer blow for Erik ten Hag who would have no doubt been preparing for the Portuguese captain to be leading his line ahead of his maiden campaign at the helm. Ronaldo, who was United’s top scorer last season with 24 goals across all competitions following his emotional return from Juventus, has a year left to run on his Manchester United contract with the option of a further 12 months.

We have to make them function as a team but definitely Ronaldo, he is a giant." And, The Athletic have reported that new owner Boehly met with Ronaldo's agent Mendes in Portugal to discuss a number of topics. A report from The Times on Sunday revealed that he had asked United to let him leave the club this summer if a suitable offer comes in for his services. But you can win games and be a strong team without Cristiano Ronaldo. This is also true." "He is one of the greatest who has ever played this game and he proves it every time he is on the field. Multiple attackers are expected to be signed this summer to compensate for potential Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech exits amid AC Milan and Juventus talks but will the 37-year-old really be one of those brought in? “I was and still am very happy to be here,” he said in a recent interview. Bayern Munich have also reportedly been in touch over a potential deal as Erik ten Hag begins his reign at Old Trafford this summer. A phrase which not many Blues fans would have expected to see in this summer's transfer window.

CRISTIANO RONALDO is being linked with a move away from Manchester United this summer. · Messi world's highest paid athlete with Ronaldo also featuring in Top 10.

Sources in Portugal are insisting Cristiano Ronaldo hasn’t asked to leave Manchester United, according to reports. And though he was unable to score in the 2018 final win over Liverpool, Ronaldo was still instrumental as Real reigned supreme that year. In 2017, Ronaldo scored twice in Cardiff as Los Blancos put Juventus to the sword - making them the first club to retain the Champions League in the modern era. Ronaldo was also part of the Red Devils side that reached the final the following year, when Barcelona won 2-0 courtesy of goals from Samuel Eto’o and Lionel Messi in Rome. Many publications have claimed Ronaldo has asked to leave United behind, with the Portugal international reluctant to play in the Europa League next term. The first was at United in 2008, when they beat Chelsea in the final to reach the promised land having last secured the trophy nine years previously.

Liverpool know that having players who either don't fit the style or are not prepared to push the train (or in Ronaldo's case, seemingly both) is simply not a formula that adds up. Ten Hag needs a way to move beyond the static forward, but pushing Ronaldo out of the door would not go down well. "So if I would speak to a player now and he would tell me: ‘if you were playing in the Champions League next year I would be really interested’, I would put the phone down from my side. They might not realise it yet, but for Ten Hag and Manchester United, letting Ronaldo go this summer would work to the new manager's advantage. With the forward now 37, he does not have time to wait around for Manchester United — he needs success now. The chances of that arriving next season appear slim, and so Ronaldo wants out.

CRISTIANO RONALDO wants out of Manchester United this summer, less than a year after he re-joined from Juventus.

But the trio alone won’t be enough to bring back the glory days. He’s hardly going to condemn the Glazers given they’re the ones who gave him a nice promotion mere months ago. However, the very fact he’s questioning the club’s ambition is a damning indictment of the Glazers and their tenure as owners. And United also need a striker regardless of whether or not Ronaldo stays. David Tennant is returning as Doctor Who, Tobey Maguire has donned the red and blue colours of Spider-Man once again and, now, Cristiano Ronaldo wants out of Manchester United but is unlikely to get his wish. In midfield, the club are far too light.

"He did really well in a tough season during COVID-19 despite his difficulties adjusting to life in Manchester - he couldn't believe that it got dark outside at 3pm in the winter - but he knew he wasn't going to play with Ronaldo and wanted to join Barca. “A lot of it is about him but the teams he’s played in have been successful, so you always go with that as a team player. Yet he’s now ready to leave the Red Devils behind, with the veteran unwilling to spend a year playing in the Europa League as he enters the twilight years of his career.

Nine of his 18 league goals came in or after March – a time when the battle for a Champions League spot was all but lost. At Juventus, it was against Alvaro Morata. The Spaniard is a highly intelligent striker who occupies the left side of the field and prefers to cut into his right before taking a shot. But when the number of goals go down from the high 40s to the mid-20s – that defensive effort that has been lacking, takes a toll on the team. For the 16th season running, Ronaldo scored over 20 goals in a season. It is a demand borne out of United’s inability to reach Europe’s top-most club competition and a sluggish start to the transfer market for the upcoming season. But in his second coming at Manchester United, he couldn’t prevent the club from being an also-ran in the race for a Champions League spot.

Chelsea consider move for Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United (The Guardian)

The player's agent Jorge Mendes has held talks with Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly but any deal will depend on whether Thomas Tuchel is interested.

The France winger has been a target for Chelsea, who must decide whether to keep their bid for Raphinha on the table. Lukaku struggled to adapt to Tuchel’s system last season – the Belgium striker did not press enough and lacked mobility – and it is likely that signing Ronaldo would create similar problems. Signing Ronaldo would give Chelsea a proven goalscorer but although he scored 24 goals in 38 appearances for United last season, it was debatable whether he had a positive impact on the team’s play.

Cristiano Ronaldo's brutal Antonio Conte snub may have finally ... (Mirror.co.uk)

The Portuguese superstar's future at Old Trafford looks set to be indirectly dictated by Antonio Conte, whom Ronaldo was said to be set against coming to ...

The Brazilian is high up United's transfer shortlist and a deal would become possible should Ajax land his ready-made replacement. As reported by the Manchester Evening News last season, Ronaldo ‘vetoed’ the appointment of Conte at Old Trafford – yet the Italian may now play a role in dictating the player’s future. Antony is primarily a right-sided player, which would add balance to United's attack with Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford primarily deployed on the left. Bergwijn previously starred at PSV Eindhoven prior to his switch to the Premier League in 2020. United have not planned for Ronaldo’s exit this summer but Brazilian forward Antony is said to be among the leading transfer targets for new boss Erik ten Hag who is keen to reunite with the 22-year-old - Ajax's star player last season. Ajax will be more open to offers for the Brazilian this summer should they sign forward Steven Bergwijn from Tottenham this summer.

Liverpool know Cristiano Ronaldo claim is absurd as Mohamed ... (Liverpool.com)

Gary Neville has been talking about Liverpool again. His take on Mohamed Salah is made to look all the more foolish by the Cristiano Ronaldo situation.

He finished last season as the top scorer and assister in the Premier League. Keeping him at Anfield is nothing short of a major victory. As for his previous role, all the warning signs were there: he had scored freely for Juventus, but the team as a whole had moved backwards. After failing to prevent Manchester United from missing out on the Champions League places, Ronaldo has now made it clear that he wants to leave the club for one that can offer him a place back in Europe’s elite. Ronaldo’s reputation precedes him, but he had done nothing to prove himself at Manchester United in well over a decade when they parachuted him in on a bumper wage. Having given his prime years to other clubs, Ronaldo eventually returned to Old Trafford — but only after attempting to engineer a transfer to Manchester City. Once the move was complete, he spent a season refusing to press, demanding that the system be built around him. This would not necessarily be a bad thing for the club, whose overall progression has been stunted by indulging the 37-year-old.
