Transfer News: Cristiano Ronaldo still open to Juventus exit amid Manchester United interest

According to ESPN, the representatives of former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo are gauging transfer interest from elsewhere despite talks with Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri over his future.

The Portuguese superstar enjoyed 6 successful years at Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson before leaving for Real Madrid. And 12 years on, a reunion could well be on the cards.

The report mentions that Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are the clubs who have been contacted in order to see if the 36-year-old has a place in their starting XI next season.

That goes on to show that he still has a lot left to give to football. And there is no doubt how much United fans would love to see a club legend return to Old Trafford this summer.

However, his wage demands and the transfer fee could be a problem for any suitor, considering the after-effects of Covid-19 on the club’s finances. He still has one year left on his current Juventus deal.
