CRISTIANO RONALDO has requested to leave Manchester United this summer, according to a report.
The global superstar is keen to move on from Old Trafford for a second time in his career.
The Times report that the Portuguese forward wants to leave the Red Devils should they receive a reasonable offer in this transfer window.
Ronaldo, 37, is believed to want to continue playing in the Champions League for as long as possible.
The report states that the ex-Real Madrid star is confident he has another three or four good years left in his career.
He re-joined the Reds last August following a £12million move from Juventus.
And with new boss Erik Ten Hagg just in the door, the Dutchman looks set to head into the new season without United's star player.
Chelsea and Bayern Munich have already registered their interest in the striker.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
