CAPE TOWN – Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly willing to take a pay cut in order to seal a return to former club Manchester United.
According to the UK Mirror, the player has made it clear to Manchester United that he would like to return, and has spoken to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who is also reportedly keen on the reunion.
“This is something really huge for Cristiano right now, and it’s really difficult in this financial situation to find a club prepared to pay him the same salary.
“The bottom line is he wants to play in the Champions League and Juventus still have three game left to get there – but it’s difficult for Juventus at the moment.”
Last week, Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes ruled out a move back to Portugal, saying “… at the moment, his career plans do not go through Portugal.”
