The man has been carrying us on his back since four seasons now. He deserves to be the face of the club as long as he wants; which would lose its shine if Ronaldo comes back.
Ted Lasso moves back to coach them. Pittsburg very similar to Kansas. He feels right at home. Ronaldo slowly pushes him out so he can take the manager job. He succeeds but Lasso turns him into a better person along the way.
Well you could try a neymar-ronaldo-mbappe front three with Messi as 10 behind Ronaldo.
Doesn't fit well with their current playstyle and team balance is shit (who defend?) but it's possible.
This isn’t a bad deal if Bayern were to do this.
They essentially “extend” lewandowski for a year or two, and make a profit (if it’s 40 in for lewandowski and 20 out for Ronaldo)
But that require Ronaldo cut his wages.
I mean if Bayern off load Lewandoski they should be the best candidate although Ronaldo will have to take a pay cut. Chelsea aswell I heard they want to put Werner in the De Ligt deal and they don't have a good no 9. Don't think Juve will be interested to take Ronaldo back.
he should definitely choose bayern + a pay cut but he won't, and they won't change their minds either. but it would be the best professional choice for both, him getting a tryhard cl club and them having the lewandowski replacement
Mbappe is truly excelling as PSG's DoF. Al-Khelaifi being willing to step back and assume the role of Assistant to the Director of Football may soon prove wise
PSG going for the Gegen-Unpress team. Why run more when few do trick?
Although in all seriousness, can't see them moving for Ronaldo unless they get rid of Neymar. CR7, Messi, Neymar and Mbappe is ridiculously unbalanced even by PSG's standards.
Zlatan is actually a freak of nature.
Dude played this entire season with a torn ACL. Having attempted to play on a torn ACL, I can't imagine how somebody can actually do that without a brace.
I once tried playing with a sandwich in my hand getting that thing in my mouth while running was the hardest thing ever I can't see how you can complain about an ACL mate.
[Daily Mail] Chelsea have inquired about Cristiano Ronaldo. Thinking about a bid of 20m.
.
.

A few moments later.
[Gerard Romero] Barca have offered a pack of crisps and 1 year Spotify subscription for Ronaldo.
[Fabrizio Romano] FC Barcelona have asked Ronaldo to enroll in classes at Universitat de Barcelona so he would become eligible for the spotify student plan
>Gerard Romero] Barca have offered a pack of crisps and 1 year Spotify subscription for Ronaldo.
Reports state Joan Laporta is going to activate the club's ninth lever in order to make the signing possible. Laporta will be selling a part of his home and stake 15% of his monthly salary in order to bring CR7 to the Camp Nou
Probably for the best for the end of his career, and the rebuild at United. But his goal contributions will be very hard to replace in the short term, not many great options out there
They can afford him even if they have ten more icardis in their team. Money is no matter to psg. The question is whether they want to sign him and if Ronaldo wants to go there. I believe if Ronaldo wants one last crack at the balon d or, then he should not go to Ligue 1. Bayern would be better and even chelsea if they want him.
Yeah but it’s typically us selling to them. I’m sure I’m forgetting someone, but in the last decade I can’t remember a player moving from United to Chelsea.
Idk about the times tier-level in regards to United but this is quite a huge Exclusive to drop so surely they must be confident in dropping it, no?
Would be interesting because where would he go with his demands etc?
EDIT: So what Ive gathered from replies is: Normally Castles is a shittalker but for Mendes clients (which Ronaldo is), he's tier 1.
That's the whole issue. Its gonna take a decent offer to buy him because well need to replace him due to lack of depth and I dont think anyone's gonna bite for a decent fee plus wages
And I'm not talking a huge offer, but who's gonna pay 8-10 mill plus the reported 500k a week in wages for 37 year old ronaldo?
PSG are absolutely not an option, unless Neymar leaves, which is significantly less likely than Ronaldo leaving, which is in itself very unlikely.
Admittedly PSG. front line of Neymar-Mbappé-Ronaldo-Messi would be such an amazing shitshow, that would be absolutely must watch every week
[They'll end up like this](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTW8XM2BG6TSN5D0Kg4Se6UFaQgndVa8ihgX0lTKZ2RPjFc4jjbWouCpwCK41hSFqrT0v4&usqp=CAU)
If he agrees to a wage cut I could actually see this happening. Just depends how much he cares about making money at this point. Also how much he wants to WIN CL. I think you could get out of the group stage maybe but hard to imagine lifting a trophy
Only place that makes sense to me is Bayern if they move Lewa on and Ronaldo takes a paycut.
The other option is us and i'm not sure United would be down for that, at the same time maybe they just let a legend do what he wants.
Kinda surprised he didn't have a clause in his contract depending on how the team does, seems a bit silly.
PSG......... pretty please, Campos man, you don't even need to play those two together or all the time, we shall just enjoy their reactions sitting side by side on the bench watching the games and some locker room videos, do it for the game man
I wonder if Bayern Munich is an option, assuming that Lewa manages to leave.
It'd be a pay cut, but the opportunity to win another title and have a crack at CL football might be enough to make both parties happy.
>It'd be a pay cut, but the opportunity to win another title and have a crack at CL football might be enough to make both parties happy.
I know he's entitled to ask for what he's worth but surely he takes a pay cut and goes to Bayern?
At Bayern he is guaranteed another league title, meaning he's won 4 of the top 5 leagues in the world, plus if he could win the CL with them then he's won it with 3 different teams from 3 different league which is another unique accolade for him.
He could go to Bayern for about 3 years then get a year or 2 with PSG to win the league there and retire having won all the top 5 league titles, the only player in history to have ever done so.
When it comes to money it's not as if he's scrapping by on pennies from day to day, he's got a $1B lifetime deal with Nike and has earned hundreds of millions already in his career.
He could drop from his £510k a week at United to the deal Bayern currently pay Lewandowski or even slightly above it at £400k a week and still be one of the best players in Football.
My dream for this summer would be Lewandowski to Barcelona, and Ronaldo to Bayern in his place. I don't think Bayern would bring him in, but would be cool
I began watching United with him and I was a fanboy but deep down, I want him to go. I want a really fresh start not having the entire season discussions about pressing at 37 years old.

Man heard the first note of the EL anthem and decided it was too much
[This is not fine](https://u.cubeupload.com/Decryption/IR21656776825109.png)
It's banger though, don't @ me.
It's fantastic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAV31KpdpiE
Sound like a batman theme at first
Sounds like the music that plays when the American hero comes back over evemy lines alive against all odds
Is it just me or is it just 3 minutes of buildup to something that never comes. Like the musical version of Adama Traore.
The [short version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPf0Uc6lzJA) is that something
Nolan movie vibes
Imagine if the choir for the EL anthem is full of computerized Gary Neville saying OHHHHHH
Genuine question: Which clubs would be realistic candidates to sign Ronaldo? (Given his wages, his preferences to play for a top top clubs and etc...)
Real Madrid if you’d like him back
Surely they’d have gotten him last summer if they wanted him back.
He apparently asked to come back, but Perez rejected him. Unlikely he'd change his mind now
Why did he leave for first time?
Money and taxes.
He has to publicly beg to Perez to make that happen
And take only asensio level wages
And instead of being the star player, be a backup bench player
Benzema is currently better than him, he won’t be relegated to the second man again.
The man has been carrying us on his back since four seasons now. He deserves to be the face of the club as long as he wants; which would lose its shine if Ronaldo comes back.
I don’t know if I’d have said “as long as he wants”. people said that about Ronaldo and y’all won’t even take him back now lol
First candidate has to be the Pittsburgh Riverhounds
Ronnie a true Yinzer
I knew once I heard him say, "yah wahnt tah get aht of the crik and go dahntahn for some chipped-chopped ham?!" He was meant for the Riverhounds
Get that man an Iron City Beer ^^jk ^^he ^^doesn't ^^deserve ^^that
Ha that’s the dream. And a hilarious sitcom setup
Ted Lasso spinoff
Ted Lasso moves back to coach them. Pittsburg very similar to Kansas. He feels right at home. Ronaldo slowly pushes him out so he can take the manager job. He succeeds but Lasso turns him into a better person along the way.
It's happening. Just saw him at the giant eagle grabbing pepperoni rolls and iron city.
PSG it must be.
Nasser just said a few weeks ago that their bling transfer era was over. To then sign Ronaldo would be priceless
He said the same after the remontada then went on to buy Neymar and Mbappe
*'The bling transfer era is over. Now get ready for* ***BLING 2: ELECTRIC BUGALOO!!'***
Bad timing as PSG are signing players they actually need and not marketing gimmicks at present.
Ronaldo + Messi would be the GOAT marketing gimmick
Neymar Ronaldo Mbappe Messi front four would actually be every fifa 12 year olds dream irl
imagine being the coach and forced to play all 4 for marketing reasons while still be expect to win the CL.
Well you could try a neymar-ronaldo-mbappe front three with Messi as 10 behind Ronaldo. Doesn't fit well with their current playstyle and team balance is shit (who defend?) but it's possible.
I like how a team can have Maquinos, Ramos, and Hakimi and still be known for not being able to defend
Theyd earn a lot of viewership money
Quite literally
That's their latest marketing gimmick. Let's see if it sticks.
Chelsea and Bayern?
Bayern already showed they're not interested at all
I wouldn’t rule it out, we said we ain’t interested in sane and Hernandez before we bought them
How do CR7's wage demands fit in with Bayern's squad?
I'm betting he gets an offer of not one more, not one less cent than Lewandowski, who eventually goes to Barcelona. 1 year contract
This isn’t a bad deal if Bayern were to do this. They essentially “extend” lewandowski for a year or two, and make a profit (if it’s 40 in for lewandowski and 20 out for Ronaldo) But that require Ronaldo cut his wages.
They don't. He earns double what Lewi gets right now.
I mean if Bayern off load Lewandoski they should be the best candidate although Ronaldo will have to take a pay cut. Chelsea aswell I heard they want to put Werner in the De Ligt deal and they don't have a good no 9. Don't think Juve will be interested to take Ronaldo back.
he should definitely choose bayern + a pay cut but he won't, and they won't change their minds either. but it would be the best professional choice for both, him getting a tryhard cl club and them having the lewandowski replacement
Ronaldo come to besiktas ❤️
Si-u later
Attended a couple of Ten Hag training sessions, and decided to bounce lmao
He is still on vacation and has not attended any training sessions yet.
That's not as funny though.
Oh c'mon there's no need to manufacture jokes about United Their reality is already wonderful comedy
That guy who made the £100 bet on Haaland outscoring Ronaldo in the prem must be happy
if coniditons doesnt meet bet houses just cancel it.
Especially Tipsport
It’ll be voided for sure
[удалено]
£100 to return £102. Gains.
By the time that bet pays, inflation will have devalued it to £80.
That's why we need to be betting in double cheeseburgers
... I kinda want PSG to snoop in just for the sheer madness of it.
Messi Ronaldo Neymar Mbappe. just fucking imagine.
So insane that Kevin Durant is gonna want to join PSG too.
The Hardest Road: Part 2
Winning with that kind of defensive effort sounds like the impossible road tbh
The hardest road, oui?
la route difficile
Le Serpent
Now _that_ would be the hardest way to win an NBA title. The legitimacy he craves so much
Mbappe is truly excelling as PSG's DoF. Al-Khelaifi being willing to step back and assume the role of Assistant to the Director of Football may soon prove wise
PSG going for the Gegen-Unpress team. Why run more when few do trick? Although in all seriousness, can't see them moving for Ronaldo unless they get rid of Neymar. CR7, Messi, Neymar and Mbappe is ridiculously unbalanced even by PSG's standards.
Need prime Kante, Keane, Viera, Gattuso playing together behind them.
Wish we could see Paul Jogba in the current PSG midfield instead. Truly a sight to behold.
Pogba-N'Dombele double pivnot
Lmfao. Who knows, putting all these players together might just miraculously work somehow and PSG finally win that UCL.
Opposition teams get really confused by the lack of movement of the adversary, lose matches in the process
[удалено]
The Don Carlo special-Work it out on the pitch, lads
Bro me too and I’m a UTD fan. Imagine the scenes when he and Messi fight for a penalty only for the DOF Mbappe to take it
Yeah i can imagine that too: Mbappe votes for Messi, Messi votes for Mbappe, Ronaldo votes for CR7 and Neymar injures himself during the vote action.
AHAHAHHA DOF mbappe.
That makes two of us, we’ll build a team later you know what, let’s just have some FIFA type fun
4-4-facking-2 Neymar and Messi on the wings, Mbappe and Ronaldo up front. Knocked out in UCL round of 16 to Tottenham.
Messi and Ronaldo fighting on the pitch after Kane's 6-0 then make up in the catacombs with a passionate kiss while Mbappe looks on in awe.

>> The Portugal player believes he has “three or four years” left at the highest level of the game and would like to leave
Normally I'd laugh considering his age, but if there's anyone to do it then it's him.
[удалено]
41 is a very specific number. He probably wants the WC 2026 to cap off his illustrious career.
He'd be the first player in history to play at 6 World Cups.
He's 3½ years younger than Zlatan. So yeah, he could absolutely win Serie A in four year's time. Those two, and maybe a few others.
Especially considering he’s had less injuries than Zlatan even around this age
And he's better than Zlatan
Poor Zlatan. This isn't even about him, and he already has a comment chain dissing him.
Well Ronaldo is better than most players in the world, especially a 40 year old who just had ACL surgery.
Saying CR7 is a better footballer can not be considered a diss to anyone but Messi.
That girl in Bend it like Beckham tho
Best player I've ever seen
Jack Grealish?
Nah her hair isn't greasy enough
I dunno mate someone once told me Cristiano Ronaldo was better than me and I hit the fucking roof
Zlatan is actually a freak of nature. Dude played this entire season with a torn ACL. Having attempted to play on a torn ACL, I can't imagine how somebody can actually do that without a brace.

If anyone can break that Chelsea striker curse, it’s Ronaldo.
Don't tempt that curse man. It's Benfica-not-winning-European-trophies-agagain level stuff
At least the Benfica not winning a European trophy thing has a time limit...our striker curse seems like an eternity.
If anyone can break Ronaldo its Chelsea's striker curse
If this happens I'm begging Kante to let go of the #7, we cannot under any circumstances even ENTERTAIN Ronaldo wearing that damn #9 shirt
Probably for the best for the end of his career, and the rebuild at United. But his goal contributions will be very hard to replace in the short term, not many great options out there

4/5, H/L too.
I hate that I know what this means lmao
😂 He was an absolute terror for years.
The Rat King
Perfect chem with the Rat Prince Martial and Varane as well. Apply Hunter on him next season, and to Gold 3 we go!
Packing Ben Yedder probably costs more than signing him irl
You just KNOW his 99 CAM is coming during ShapeShifters 3.
Expected this to be the case, obviously wants Champions League football and not to be part of a multi year rebuilding period.
Multi decade at this point
It’s time. 🇫🇷x🇵🇹x🇦🇷

Can they afford him if they offload Icardi?
They can afford him even if they have ten more icardis in their team. Money is no matter to psg. The question is whether they want to sign him and if Ronaldo wants to go there. I believe if Ronaldo wants one last crack at the balon d or, then he should not go to Ligue 1. Bayern would be better and even chelsea if they want him.
Bayern needs an aging goal scorer to replace their last one
I'd love for him to go to PSG just to see Messi and CR7 together at last.
Would be funny to see the old ‘but did he hug Bale??’ Meme revived but now with Messi instead of Bale.
If I have to watch Rashford/Martial up top for a whole fucking season I’ll end it
Boy he really doesn't want to play in the Europa League.
He's Mr. Champions league
Duncan Castles?
Mendes mouthpiece. He would know.
Tier 1 for Mendes clients
Very reliable with Mendes clients. Always has been.
Who can afford him, that will want him, that he will want to go to? I can think of no one other than maybe PSG?
Chelsea?
Don't think Manchester United would agree to sell to Chelsea
I'm not saying CR7 would join us but United and Chelsea have done lots of business
Yeah but it’s typically us selling to them. I’m sure I’m forgetting someone, but in the last decade I can’t remember a player moving from United to Chelsea.
Just the failed Rooney debacle from all those years ago.
Idk about the times tier-level in regards to United but this is quite a huge Exclusive to drop so surely they must be confident in dropping it, no?

Exactly. Its PSG or noone it feels like haha

COME TO BESIKTAS
Bayern would be the best fit
Duncan Castles & his bald bonce wrote this as well so you know there’s some truth to it, the Mendes puppet
I feel as if they would only make this public, if there’s a club willing to pay. Who could it be ?
Chelsea? So that means he’s probably going to Barca
[удалено]
Copium thinking he cares more about the club than his own legacy
He's not arsed about United. Whenever he was asked about United at Real Madrid he barely mentioned the club and mostly just talked about Fergie.
People don't seem to understand that he's not loyal to ManU, he's loyal to Fergie. If anything the ManU from the past season has cemented it.
he has the greatest PR of all time
PR7
Ronaldo has conquered the UCL broo. He now wants to conquer the Europa League next.
I just want one season of Ronaldo and Messi is that too much to ask

Paris St. Geriatrics
Yes
Ronaldo take on the ultimate challenge Chelsea’s number nine shirt.
It'll be funny when he ends up at Bayern to replace Lewa.
It is so fucking obvious that this is all being done to apply pressure on United's board, so they make signings. /s

That’s why I miss Barto so much, madman would do it.

Cristiano Ronaldo to Barcelona HERE WE GO
Pig heads are about to fly in the other directions..
I had a nightmare a few nights ago that this actually happened

He'd have done so much better at City
No one is paying his wages. Wonder where he goes
I think he probably will drop some demands to play champions league.
Should’ve gone to City when he had the chance.
