Cristiano Ronaldo has arrived at Manchester United’s Carrington training ground with his agent Jorge Mendes ahead of talks with new manager Erik ten Hag. The Portuguese forward is not for sale, as new manager Erik ten Hag has said, but the talks will take place regardless of the outcome. Rumours suggest that Atletico Madrid may be interested in signing Ronaldo, but the club are happy to let him leave on loan. The United manager may also be open to extending Ronaldo’s contract.
Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United
After missing the start of pre-season with a family issue, Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to arrive at Manchester United on Monday to meet manager Erik ten Hag face to face. While United have not given any official statement, sources close to the situation suggest that the Portuguese international will demand a move as soon as possible. Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked with several European clubs over the past few months, including Chelsea and Bayern Munich. His contract with the club runs out in June, so any move away would be a significant one.
After the meeting between Ronaldo and Sir Alex Ferguson, he was seen leaving the training ground. His agent, Jorge Mendes, was also at the club to speak with the manager about a new contract. The two men were seen driving into Carrington, where the two were expected to meet. While Ronaldo is not for sale, the club say that he will play a major role in the 2022-23 season.
Despite the recent rumours that the Portuguese star is in the process of being sold, the club say that they are not interested in selling him. Ronaldo has a contract with Manchester United until 2023 and an option for another year. However, no club is prepared to pay that amount, so United will continue to consider a sale of the player. If United fail to qualify for the Champions League this season, they will be playing in the Europa League instead.
The presence of Mendes in the Manchester United camp suggests that Ronaldo has irons in the fire. As previously reported, he is willing to take a 30% pay cut to join a Champions League club. The rumours indicate that Ronaldo will be keen on a move to a new club and is ready to discuss his future with the manager. It remains to be seen if the club can lure Ronaldo.
Despite being a key player in Manchester United’s attack, the Portuguese has not been able to help his team qualify for the Champions League this season. The club has taken steps to improve their squad and strengthen their position in the top flight. As part of their rebuilding efforts, Manchester United have signed Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen, and Lisandro Martinez. And with these new additions, it is expected that the club will get the right kind of signing for the Portuguese.
Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have turned down a move for him
While Atletico Madrid and Real are both pursuing Ronaldo, Atletico has declined a bid. Atletico would have to sell a number of players in order to fund the transfer. Atletico’s financial fair play target would have been EUR45 million, which would have been too expensive for the club to absorb. A move to Real Madrid would have freed up the money for the signing of Ronaldo.
According to SunSport, Atletico Madrid fans are firmly against Ronaldo joining them. As a result, they have started a social media campaign against the Portuguese striker. In response, Atletico are putting Antoine Griezmann up for sale to free up money for a move to Madrid. This suggests that Ronaldo’s desire to join Atletico Madrid has more to do with his love for the Spanish capital.
The latest reports have revealed that Atletico Madrid have been the main contender for Ronaldo. Diego Simeone is fully behind the move, but the fans are opposing it. The fans have circulated images of Ronaldo holding a big ‘No’ symbol. Meanwhile, several Atletico supporters have joined the campaign using the hashtag ‘ContraCR7’. But the Atleti fans have been more hesitant than others.
While the transfer window has seen the arrival of several strikers from across Europe, there have been few big moves involving them. Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have remained steadfast in their refusals to sign Ronaldo. The transfer of Carlos Martin to Juventus in 2018 was widely condemned by fans, as the winger scored a hat-trick in the second leg of their Champions League game against Atletico. Despite his plight, Simeone is determined to keep the striker at Atletico. It is unlikely to happen this summer.
Erik ten Hag has been appointed as new manager of Manchester United
The appointment of Erik ten Hag as the new manager of Manchester United has been widely expected, and he has a good track record of rebuilding successful clubs. However, the new manager will face an uphill task as the team is undergoing a period of mediocrity. The new regime at Manchester United will also need to bring in a new batch of players, and it is likely that many players will be leaving before the summer. Players such as Jesse Lingard and Paul Pogba are out of contract this summer, and Erik ten Hag will be looking to replace them.
The Dutchman will be the fifth permanent manager to lead the club since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013. He will replace interim manager Ralf Rangnick, who will depart for a two-year consultancy role. Initially, Mauricio Pochettino was a frontrunner to be the new manager, but Ten Hag’s impressive CV has led to him being chosen ahead of his former manager.
The Dutchman has been given a brief to re-build the team and have several new players recruited. He is expected to sign a midfielder and has already shortlisted West Ham’s Declan Rice. He has also worked with Donny van de Beek at Ajax and could give the player a fresh start. Meanwhile, a centre-back is another priority. A forward is also expected to be a priority.
Ten Hag’s appointment comes as a shock to many. His reputation as an outsider has meant he is likely to face a cultural change. At Ajax, his Dutch accent has been ridiculed – despite being the main reason why he was chosen. But he managed the Dutch side to the Champions League semi-finals in 2018 and 2019. Previously, he had been the head coach at the Go Ahead Eagles in 2013 and 2014.
After four and a half years as manager of Ajax, Erik ten Hag has been appointed as permanent manager of Manchester United. He will replace Ralf Rangnick, who had been acting as interim manager since the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last year. After completing the Dutch league season, ten Hag will join Manchester United. And it is hoped he can make the club a contender in the future.
Sir Alex Ferguson is Ronaldo’s mentor at Carrington
United have confirmed that Sir Alex is visiting the training ground today to hold talks with Ronaldo. The former Manchester City boss is expected to discuss his future with Ronaldo. Sir Alex is also expected to meet with United’s new signings. Bryan Robson is expected to meet with Ronaldo as well. However, the United manager will need to find a place to leave the Manchester United training ground alone.
Former Manchester United head coach and manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been on a pre-season tour with Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese star was 18 years old when he joined the club. The Portuguese international went on to spend six years at Old Trafford, before moving to Real Madrid. Sir Alex Ferguson was an important mentor to Ronaldo, and it’s believed his visit to Carrington will have a similar impact on the player. However, United officials are insistent that the visit is purely coincidental. Sir Alex Ferguson has previously influenced Manchester United players and they are confident that he can influence Ronaldo once again.
Manchester United have confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo has returned to Carrington after missing pre-season tours to Australia and Thailand. The Portuguese international had previously said he wanted to leave Manchester United, but has recently asked for compassionate leave. It is unclear whether he will remain at United after the pre-season tour, as there is no sign that he’ll be staying beyond the end of his contract.
The presence of Sir Alex Ferguson at Carrington has been interpreted as a blow to the Manchester United management and Erik ten Hag’s decision-making abilities. The presence of Sir Alex Ferguson is in some ways detrimental to ten Hag’s ability to make the right decisions. It has prompted questions about the integrity of the Carrington board meeting. While he is unlikely to take a direct role in the decision-making process, he must not be overlooked.
A good mentor brings perspective. The mentor understands what lies ahead for the mentee and can provide guidance that may be needed. Ronaldo’s mentor also inspires greatness in others. His relationship with SAF is like a family. SAF’s guidance and support has been a key factor in keeping Ronaldo at the top of the game. This close relationship has contributed to the success of the club and Ronaldo’s career.
