Cristiano Ronaldo: 4 Possible Destinations for Portugal Star as Man United Exit Edges Closer

• Cristiano Ronaldo could potentially be on the move this summer if Erik Ten Hag comes in as the new Manchester United boss
• Stunning fresh reports indicate Ronaldo, 37, is not part of Ten Hag’s long term plans
• A number of clubs could be interested in signing the Portugal superstar including Paris Saint Germain

Cristiano Ronaldo could be left weighing his options as far as his next club is concerned if latest rumours are anything to go by.

Despite being Manchester United’s top scorer this season, the 37-year old’s Old Trafford return has been anything but easy.

United are set to go a fifth straight season without winning any silverware, and Champions League football is not guaranteed as they sit in seventh place with eight games to go.

According to reports from England, Ten Hag is still not convinced that Cristiano Ronaldo is worth keeping for another season at Old Trafford, and the Ajax boss has reportedly advised the club to cash in on the veteran, whose deal is set to expire in 2023.

Without Ten Hag’s input on Cristiano, United will still find it hard to retain his services if the club fails to qualify for the Champions League

With all that in mind, Sports Brief takes a look at plausible destinations for Ronaldo if he leaves United in the summer.

1. Paris Saint Germain

While this is fairly unlikely, it is not impossible for several reasons.

PSG already managed to acquire the services of another multi- Ballob d’or winner in the form of Lionel Messi last season, and they could be tempted to move in for Ronaldo.

The French giants certainly have the capacity to meet Ronaldo’s wage demands and they could used a player with Champions League winning experience in their quest to become Champions of Europe.

2. Sporting Lisbon

In the recent past, Cristiano’s mother Dolores has made it clear that she would love to see her son make an emotional return to the club that made Manchester United notice him back in 2003.

Sporting are currently six points behind Porto in the domestic league and are set to miss out on the title this campaign.

3. MLS (Inter Miami)

Alternatively, Cristiano could opt to call it quits on his Europe adventure and move to the American MLs to see out the remainder of his career, but this is highly unlikely.

4. Real Madrid

Los Blancos are set to lose two high profile players in the form of Gareth Bale and Eden Hazard in the summer.

Ronaldo is very familiar with Real Madrid as well as Carlo Ancelotti, who managed him for two seasons before he was sacked.

A reunion with the runaway La Liga leaders is not too far-fetched as Real Madrid fans have fond memories of Cristiano, who spent a successful nine-year spell in La Liga from 2009 to 2018.
