We’re tracking the Cristiano Ronaldo transfer odds to gauge the likelihood of a move for
the Manchester United forward this 💳 summer.
The 37-year-old has asked to leave Old
Trafford if an acceptable offer arrives following a disappointing first season back at
💳 the club.
Ronaldo is absent from United’s pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia due
to a family issue and speculation continues 💳 over his future.
Here are the clubs being
linked with a blockbuster move for the Portugal legend and their odds of 💳 capturing his
signature before September 2, with loan deals not counting:
ATLETICO MADRID @ 4.0
This
would be a big call on 💳 all fronts, as Ronaldo was such a hero when playing for
Atletico’s arch-rivals Real, but sentiment often counts for little 💳 in football. Ronaldo
did have talks with Manchester City last summer before rejoining United, so he is
clearly open to 💳 a controversial switch. With Luis Suarez departing Wanda Metropolitano,
there is a vacancy up front and the Cristiano Ronaldo transfer 💳 rumours have taken off
about this possible move.
SPORTING LISBON @ 5.0
There have been persistent Cristiano
Ronaldo transfer rumours linking the 💳 modern-day great with a return to his first club.
It was always thought that could be a sentimental switch at 💳 the end of his career but
being based in Portugal ahead of this winter’s World Cup would make sense at 💳 this
point. CR7 has expressed a desire to challenge for Champions League glory, but there
are other reasons for this 💳 move to appeal.
BAYERN MUNICH @ 7.0
This looked a perfect
fit for Ronaldo, who would seem an ideal replacement for Barcelona-bound 💳 Robert
Lewandowski. Bayern have won 10 straight Bundesliga titles and claimed two Champions
League triumphs during that time. However, sporting 💳 director Hasan Salihamidzic has
insisted a move for Ronaldo is not on the cards, with Sadio Mane already signed to
💳 boost their attacking options.
CHELSEA @ 13.0
The Blues initially expressed an interest
in acquiring Ronaldo and setting up camp in a 💳 city like London would almost certainly
suit his family. Chelsea’s new owners have since backtracked and ruled themselves out
of 💳 this race, though.
PSG @ 13.0
Having tied Kylian Mbappe down to a long-term
contract, the French club’s mega-rich backers must decide 💳 whether to stick with Lionel
Messi and Neymar as their other ‘trophy’ front men or seek to surround the 23-year-old
💳 with a different role model, such as Ronaldo. Money certainly isn’t a problem if they
do decide to go in 💳 another direction.
REAL MADRID @ 17.0
This would represent another
emotional homecoming to a club where he won four Champions League trophies. 💳 Real
conquered Europe again last term and were runaway winners of La Liga, but Barcelona’s
spending spree means they can’t 💳 afford to rest on their laurels.
ROMA @ 21.0
Ronaldo
spent three seasons playing under Jose Mourinho at Real and they won 💳 La Liga once
together, but their relationship was not always great. Mourinho once said of CR7 that
he “maybe thinks 💳 that he knows everything and that the coach cannot improve him
anymore”. We can’t see them rekindling that partnership in 💳 the Italian
capital.
