Italian transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano has dropped details about Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo request to allow Manchester United to leave the club if an acceptable offer is made.

 

 

 

The news broke on July 2, when it was announced that the 37-year-old wanted to leave Manchester United and that his agent, George Mendes, had made it clear to the club.

 

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano said that Ronaldo allegedly made the following statement (from 3:20).

 

According to BBC Sport, the forward wants the Red Devils to let him leave this summer if an appropriate offer comes in for him. He doesn’t want to play Europa League football and is also bothered by the club’s lack of signings so far this summer.
