Brazilian international Bruno Fernandes has poured cold water on rumours linking the Manchester United forward with a move to Chelsea. Ronaldo scored 24 goals in all competitions last season, and was the linchpin of a dismal season for Manchester United. But the rumours about his future quickly spiralled after Manchester United missed out on the Champions League, with unfounded reports linking Ronaldo with a switch to Chelsea. Manchester United has repeatedly denied reports linking Ronaldo with a move to Chelsea, and Bruno Fernandes’ comments are a further proof that Ronaldo is a United player.
Bruno Fernandes expects Cristiano Ronaldo to remain at Manchester United
Brazilian midfielder Bruno Fernandes expects Cristiano to stay at Manchester United. The Portuguese star has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford after a poor campaign last season. But the Portuguese international is set to stay in the Premier League for the time being. Fernandes is not alone in his confidence. The Portugal international has also been linked with Juventus and AS Roma. Both of these sides are expected to meet up in pre-season.
With the recent departure of Nemanja Matic and Edinson Cavani from the club, Ronaldo is a popular choice among fans. The Portuguese forward has been a key player at Old Trafford for many years and has scored 18 goals in the Premier League. He has also won the Champions League. In addition to his goals, Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world, so it’s no surprise he’s been linked with a move to Manchester United.
It’s worth remembering that Ronaldo has a year left on his contract and a 12-month option. It is unlikely that he will be sold this summer, but the possibility remains. However, the Portuguese striker has been frustrated with Manchester United’s lack of transfer activity this summer. Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham have all made major signings already, and Chelsea have been busy since the new ownership took over the club.
Although Cristiano Ronaldo’s performances last season were not good enough to make the Champions League, the Portuguese international has stated that he will stay at the club. He also insists that Manchester United should aim to win all four competitions this season, as last season was not enough for the team. There is no doubt that he would be a prickly character this season, but he will certainly have a lot to prove.
With the price tag of around PS25 million, it’s not an easy task for any club to sign him. But Mendes has already approached Bayern Munich about the possibility of signing the Portuguese forward. Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho said that the Europa League final victory over Ajax was the final piece of the puzzle. Ajax has already signed a contract with Cristiano Ronaldo.
He believes he deserves time and space at the club
Brazil’s Bruno Fernandes says he is owed time and space at Manchester United, despite the fact that the Portuguese forward has been the club’s best player this season. The Portuguese winger joined Manchester United in January 2020, and scored twelve goals and contributed eight assists during his first few months. Last season, Fernandes scored 18 goals and added 13 assists. This season, he has netted nine times, in 42 appearances. Cristiano Ronaldo’s return may have been a factor in Fernandes’ struggles, but it is unlikely that the Portuguese striker would have been dropped for the moment.
Although United are not yet sure if Cristiano Ronaldo will stay, the Portuguese has called for the Portugal international to be given some space. Ronaldo has missed the team’s tour to Thailand and Australia due to family reasons. He has also been absent from the club’s pre-season tour because one of his twins died in April. The Portuguese star is currently in Portugal with his family. With just 17 days left until the start of the new season, Ronaldo’s future at the club is still in doubt.
A number of observers have argued that Ronaldo’s arrival has spoiled the pre-season plan. However, Fernandes insists that Ronaldo and Fernandes are a match made in heaven and should continue to play together as a team. Fernandes’ goal against Villarreal showed this in action. As for Ronaldo’s individual goals, the Portuguese international has already scored five goals in six games this season.
Nevertheless, Manchester United can’t afford to waste Fernandes’ potential. The quality elsewhere in the squad does not cover his absence. Fernandes has a real chance to win the United MVP award, and he deserves to have his status acknowledged in his contract. In addition to Ronaldo, Fernandes believes Ronaldo deserves more time and space at the club.
Despite the fact that both Ronaldo and Messi have set new benchmarks in football, Bruno has been a victim of mistakes, both in football and in life. And that’s a shame. Ronaldo and Messi have been the ‘new’ benchmarks, and despite the mistakes, they are still the best players in the world, and they deserve to have time and space.
Despite the pressure, the Portuguese striker returned to the starting XI against Chelsea, and it was a change from the midweek game. Cristiano Ronaldo had been relegated to the bench at Stamford Bridge, and Donny van de Beek, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford were all recalled. It was the first match since the post-Ole Gunn Solskjaer era that he had returned to the team.
He believes he deserves to be replaced by Robert Lewandowski
Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski scored a hat-trick against Benfica in midweek. The Polish striker now has more Champions League goals than Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi combined. Despite the hat-trick, Lewandowski is still far better than either of these two. Fernandes believes Lewandowski deserves to replace Ronaldo.
Bayern Munich has made the decision to replace Ronaldo after the Portuguese star’s controversial move. While Ronaldo has been a key player for the club for several seasons, he is not expected to be the first line of defence under Thomas Tuchel. As a result, the club expects their forward players to work hard off the ball. However, there are other factors that will help determine whether Lewandowski should replace Ronaldo.
In addition to signing Lewandowski, Chelsea are reportedly interested in the player. Chelsea have already signed Raheem Sterling from Manchester City for PS45million. Barcelona are also a contender for the player. And although the new owners are keen on Ronaldo, they will need to sell Lewandowski to fund the move. Manchester United are prepared to offer Robert Lewandowski PS400,000 a week.
A ‘Ronaldo’ replacement would involve a drastic change. The club’s owners and fans will debate whether or not the Portuguese superstar should be replaced, but both sides are in agreement that Erik ten Hag needs to future-proof the attack with a capable striker. And Lewandowski’s versatility could be the answer to the team’s current crisis.
The World’s best players are often split when it comes to the Ballon d’Or. And the Ballon d’Or is no exception. Ronaldo’s five Ballon d’Or win was controversially postponed due to a pandemic, and Robert Lewandowski was widely regarded as the frontrunner. But despite the fact that Lewandowski is a ‘frontrunner’ for the Ballon d’Or, he has been nominated for the award.
While Cristiano Ronaldo has yet to play in the Europa League, he still has great affection for Manchester United. The Portuguese forward feels he has three or four years to prove himself at the top level of the game. He wants to join a team that will add to his countless achievements. Bayern Munich and Chelsea have been linked with Ronaldo as potential destinations for the Brazilian.
