Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent, Jorge Mendes, is reportedly still working on a solution that would allow his client to leave Manchester United this summer.
The future of the Portuguese striker is still unclear, while he is looking to leave “Old Trafford”.
The transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, has said that Ronaldo’s agent, Mendes, is still “working on a solution”. He denied an interest from the player’s former club, Sporting Lisbon.
“There is nothing going on with Sporting – this story was fake news. The situation has remained essentially the same in the last 20 days: Cristiano wants to leave, Erik ten Hag is waiting to have a conversation with him to try to change his mind”, wrote Romano in his column for “Caught Offside”. .
“Manchester United is waiting for an answer from Cristiano to understand when he can return to training, but Jorge Mendes continues to work on solutions: Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea have approached, but there are still no developments,” wrote the Italian journalist.
It was recently reported that Manchester United would agree to let the 37-year-old leave on loan for the 2022/23 season, provided he signs a contract extension until 2024.
Even the coach of the “Red Devils”, Erik ten Hag, has repeatedly insisted that the five-time winner of the “Golden Ball” will not leave.
However, Ronaldo has not yet started training with the English team and it is believed that the chances are greater that he will leave.
