European clubs continued their rejection of Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, who wants to leave his current team, Manchester United, as Sporting Lisbon coach Ruben Amorim refuses to sign the historic scorer, following news spread regarding the return of the “Don” to his former team.
Ronaldo was absent from Manchester United’s preparatory tour in Thailand and Australia, with a desire to leave Manchester United, who will not participate in the Champions League next season, while Bayern Munich, Chelsea, London, Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid refused to sign him, whether through official statements or leaks to the media.
And press news has spread recently regarding the possibility of Ronaldo returning to Sporting Lisbon, who left him 19 years ago, to play in its ranks once more, as the runner-up of the Portuguese League will participate in the Champions League next season.
The Athletic website published on Thursday: Sporting Lisbon coach Ruben Amorim is not with the idea of contracting Ronaldo, because the presence of the “Don” in the team will change his form and the tactics used in the matches, in addition to his high salary.
Ronaldo was Manchester United’s top scorer last season, with 24 goals.
