Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes tells Man Utd to ‘name their price’ in new Cristiano transfer twist
Ronaldo’s super agent Jorge Mendes has reportedly told Manchester United to ‘name their price’ for Cristiano Ronaldo as he attempts to get the Portuguese superstar out of Old Trafford.
Just a year after making an emotional comeback to the club from Juventus, Ronaldo has dropped a shocking request to leave the team this summer.
Ronaldo’s future has been firmly positioned by United, who have insisted that he is not for sale while highlighting the fact that he still has one year left on the two-year contract he signed.
But so far, an exit has been difficult to facilitate.
Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, and Chelsea were all said to be interested in signing him, but they all seem to have dropped out of the race.
However, Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes appears to have stepped in just as he was planning a way to get his client out of the club.
According to The Sun, the Portuguese agent has asked the Red Devils to ‘name their price’ for Ronaldo, with an offer currently on the table for the striker.
It remains to be seen which club has made a move for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Whilst speculation continues to circulate regarding his future, Ronaldo has actually made a return to the club over the last few weeks.
He was also afforded his first minutes of action on Sunday in a friendly game with Spanish side Rayo Vallecano.
He only lasted 45 minutes before being substituted by manager Erik ten Hag.
He still had the opportunity to stir up more speculation as he was spotted leaving the stadium before the final whistle, something that United revealed they had no problem with.
