Cristiano Ronaldo ‘tells Manchester United he DOES have an offer from a rival club’ and the veteran ‘has urged the Red Devils to name his price so he can trigger a move’
- Cristiano Ronaldo has asked to leave Manchester United before his final year
- The Portuguese star has reportedly told the club there is an offer waiting.
- This is despite the fact that United have not received any inquiries about their star player.
- Ronaldo is said to have asked the club to name his transfer value for him.
Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly told Manchester United that he has an offer on the table to leave the club this summer.
Sun have claimed that the Portuguese superstar who wants to leave Old Trafford, has urged United bosses to set their price on him, so that he can trigger a departure at the end of the transfer window.
This comes despite several of Europe’s top clubs, including Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid, backing away from signing the 37-year-old and United receiving no inquiries.
Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly informed Manchester United that he has an offer.
The Portuguese superstar is said to have told the club to indicate the asking price for him.
Ronaldo, along with his agent Jorge Mendes, have been in confrontational talks with the United hierarchy this week, after informing the club of his intentions to leave earlier this summer.
Mendes is said to have informed the club that Ronaldo has a ‘live offer’ and a transfer fee for their star is to be named.
The report does not state which side is interested in signing Ronaldo.
As well as Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid, the likes of Chelsea and Napoli have also been linked with Ronaldo this summer.
Sportsmail reported on Wednesday that Ronaldo had asked to be released from his £360,000-a-week contract before his final year.
Ronaldo only returned to Carrington this week and has not been immersed in Erik ten Hag’s methods
United have responded that they have no desire to sell it and have maintained that there has been no change in their position, nor have they received any inquiries.
The Sun added that the Red Devils have “rejected” themselves at the suggestion that they should let Ronaldo go free at the end of his contract, due to what was described as his “loyalty” to the club.
Ronaldo only returned to Carrington on Tuesday after missing United’s entire pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia.
The club hoped to win Ronaldo over, but the talks failed to change his mind about wanting to leave, although he will continue in a professional manner.

Clubs such as Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich have distanced themselves from Ronaldo’s moves.
He underwent medicals and then trained on Wednesday before seeing his team-mates in a behind-closed-doors friendly match against Wrexham.
It was thought that this weekend’s doubleheader of friendlies against Atletico Madrid on Saturday in Oslo and Rayo Vallecano at Old Trafford on Sunday might come too soon.
But it is believed that Ronaldo may have an eye on Rayo Vallecano, which will feature more than one second team.
He has been working hard in the gym after being excused from the tour due to family reasons.
But as a result, Ronaldo has not immersed himself in Ten Hag’s methods heading into the new season and will have to gradually reintegrate himself.
