Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo hopes to contribute to his team Juventus securing victory against Bologna in the final rounds of the Italian league to guarantee a spot in the Champions League. However, the situation is not straightforward and does not solely rely on Juventus winning, as qualification depends on the missteps of Milan or Napoli, who will face Atalanta and Hellas Verona respectively, either losing or even drawing. If Juventus fails to secure a spot in the Champions League, it is likely that team star Cristiano Ronaldo will transfer to another team.
In this context, English club Manchester United has shown a strong desire to bring the forward back to his old home after an absence of about 12 years. The English team has informed Cristiano Ronaldo of its interest in re-signing him in the upcoming period. Norwegian coach Ole Gunnar Solskjær has spoken with Ronaldo and revealed the club's project, emphasizing how important it is for the player to return to his former club.
It seems that Manchester United fans’ dream of seeing Cristiano Ronaldo in their team’s jersey is becoming close to reality. Regardless of what happens in Juventus's season, the prospect of watching Ronaldo in a Manchester United shirt next season appears to be the most likely option among all available choices.
If Ronaldo moves to Manchester United, he would be able to play there for two seasons before retiring at the club where he started his career (Sporting Lisbon). If Juventus fails to qualify for the next edition of the Champions League, they will welcome Ronaldo's departure and will demand €25 million from Manchester United to complete the deal or will try to swap him for another player.
According to previous press reports, Ronaldo is willing to reduce his annual salary to avoid any issues regarding this matter, as he realizes that it is impossible to secure the same salary he currently receives, which is estimated at €30 million.
