Cristiano Ronaldo apparently plans to leave Manchester United. The 37-year-old is said to have communicated this to the club officials.
Speculations about Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Premier League club Manchester United continue. According to consistent reports from British media on Saturday, the 37-year-old striker is said to have asked the club to let him change if they made a reasonable offer.
Chelsea are said to be interested
The reason for this is that the multiple world footballer is not playing in the Champions League for the first time after 19 seasons in a row, wrote the “Daily Mail”, “The Athletic” and the TV broadcaster Sky Sports on their online pages. Manchester United, sixth in the English championship, had only qualified for the Europa League.
Ronaldo surprisingly returned from Juventus Turin to Man United last summer, where he had already played from 2003 to 2009. Recently there had been rumors that the German record champions FC Bayern Munich should be interested in the goalscorer.
The FC Chelsea from the German coach Thomas Tuchel should also be interested in a commitment after the change of ownership. The new Chelsea boss Todd Boehly is said to have met with Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes in Portugal, according to “The Athletic”.
