Cristiano Ronaldo discussed the transfer issue with the leadership of Bayern Munich last week, in order to make his defection from MU next winter.
In an interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo claimed to be betrayed because both coach Ten Hag and the big boss at Old Trafford tried to push him out of the club.
However, an exclusive source from Sportsmail said that CR7 and his agent Jorge Mendes had secretly met in England last week to discuss transfer issues.
Super agent Mendes wanted to bring Ronaldo to Bayern last summer but failed. In addition, he also contacted a series of other teams such as Chelsea, Sporting Lisbon, Napoli or Newcastle.
As for the Gray Lobster, CEO Oliver Kahn once confirmed, they considered the possibility of recruiting Ronaldo in the summer but then ignored it because he did not fit the club’s philosophy.
The German team does not want to pay Ronaldo £ 500,000 / week salary after taking Sadio Mane from Liverpool to fill the position of Robert Lewandowski.
However, now Bayern Munich officials have changed their mind because of concerns about Mane’s fitness condition, as well as the uncertain future of Choupo-Moting.
Cristano Ronaldo himself aspires to return to play on the top stage of the Champions League to compete for the individual title with Lionel Messi.
Chelsea owner Todd Boehly is also ready to rescue Ronaldo early next year. He maintained a close relationship with Jorge Mendes and disagreed with former coach Thomas Tuchel over the recruitment of CR7.
However, the situation at Stamford Bridge is different now. New captain Graham Potter did not object to the American boss’s plan to bring the Portuguese striker to London.
