Claim Manchester United finally ‘gave in to pressure’ of star – Now ‘willing to sell’ him for €15m

Manchester United have decided to accept negotiating the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, according to reports.

UOL journalist Bruno Andrade writes the Old Trafford side finally ‘gave in to pressure’ from the player, who last week asked to leave, and the Red Devils are now ‘willing to sell’ him.

It’s said the process now has the approval from manager Erik ten Hag, and Manchester United will demand €15m to let Cristiano Ronaldo go.

The Portuguese star is said to be unsatisfied with the lack of signings in the summer window, with the club having only confirmed the arrival of Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord so far, and is still to show up for pre-season, citing family issues.

Bruno Andrade’s story doesn’t bring any details on interested clubs, but points out that in the past few days, Chelsea and Napoli have both been claimed by the European media as two potential destinations for the 37-year-old.

Following his surprising comeback to Old Trafford last summer, Cristiano Ronaldo had 24 goals and three assists in his last season for the Red Devils, and the lack of Champions League is another reason why he’s keen on leaving the club after just one year.
