Since yesterday, Cristiano Ronaldo has been one of the main topics on the Island again, and now the problem is unraveling. United first appeared to be considering terminating the deal after Ronaldo repeatedly refused to listen to us in training and was also the first to go against Ten Haag’s ideas.
Today, a new piece of news has emerged that has echoed in the English and Spanish media. Atlético Madrid is doing everything to bring the Portuguese, and Jorge Mendes is helping the club to bring him with all his might!
In addition, this news was conveyed by the reliable journalist Guillem Balague, who claims that this could be an explanation for Ronaldo’s behavior in Manchester. He shares the opinion that Ronaldo is trying to get United to sell him, but if he doesn’t there is no guarantee the next club will meet his ambitions.
Atlético Madrid is the Portuguese’s first choice. For several reasons – he plays in the Champions League, he can join the fight for the title, and Ronaldo can “take revenge” on Florentino Perez, who easily gave up on him in 2018.
Ronaldo is certainly more suited to Simeone’s system of the team pulling back and playing on the counter than Ten Haag’s desire to play high pressing even with players who cannot do that and thinks United are Ajax.
Atlético have to sell some players first, many have agreed to take a pay cut to help the club, so it now remains to finalize the terms between Ronaldo and Atlético.
