According to the source, the Portuguese footballer intends to continue his career at Manchester City. It is reported that the transition of Ronaldo to the camp of the "townspeople" may take place in the current transfer window. The summer window in England will be closed on 31 August.
It was reported that Ronaldo, who remained on the bench in the Serie A round 1 match against Udinese, asked himself not to be included in the starting lineup. The footballer is looking for options to continue his career in another club.
Former FC Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, who left office at the end of June, spoke about the contract situation for Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
“The biggest problem is who else can pull his salary? He is paid € 70 million, € 35 million net. Who can do this? PSG? Maybe an English club? This is an unhealthy path of development, UEFA has to do something.
We need clear regulation because costs are increasing again and intervention is needed, otherwise, football will have to face very, very difficult times, ” Source Rummenigge AS.
Recall that Ronaldo has been playing for Juventus Turin since 2018. The 36-year-old Portuguese forward became the top scorer of the Italian league last season with 29 goals. Ronaldo's current contract with the Italian club runs until June 30, 2022.
