The closure of the transfer window in Europe did not put an end to the rumors about Cristiano Ronaldo‘s Manchester United future.
The Portuguese’s name is back in the news again, after a beginning to the campaign where he is not as important Manchester United.
With the 2022 World Cup coming closer and closer, the Portuguese does not want to and cannot afford not to have minutes if he hopes to arrive in Qatar in the best rhythm.
The fact that it will not be in Europe, as he is under contract with Manchester Uniteddoes not mean that the former Real Madrid player has run out of possibilities to change teams and, more importantly, continents.
According to CalcioMercato, a new window has opened for Ronaldoin this case, in the United States.
An MLS team would be interested in signing the Portuguese, although it would not be until January.
It’s understood that the team in question are David Beckham‘s Inter Miami.
Because the MLS club would wait for Cristiano to be able to negotiate a new contract, since his contract with the Red Devils does not expire until June 2023.
Cristiano, who turns 38 in February, could be interested in trying a new adventure outside Europe.
In MLS he would surely become one of the most important signings in the league’s history.
Cristiano Ronaldo refused to be the highest paid player in the world
Despite the insistence of Jorge MendesCristiano Ronaldo’s agent, and the player himself to leave Manchester in the summer, it was not possible.
The Portuguese was looking for a European team playing in the Champions League, but none could come close to his demands.
However, it was not only money that mattered in Cristiano’s decision. Yasser Almisehalpresident of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, claimed in ‘The Athletic’ that the Portuguese had turned down an “obscene” offer from Al-Hilal and another from Al-Nasr.
This information has been expanded in the last few hours. Specifically, by CNN Portugal, who revealed the offer Cristiano received.
The figure is scary: 242 million euros. That’s what Al-Hilal offered him for just two seasons. An astronomical amount that the Portuguese rejected.
At the moment, Cristiano Ronaldo‘s present is at Old Trafford, where he has had little prominence and has not scored a single goal, which is unusual for the veteran.
