Why are we having to sell a project to (i) our own player (ii) that nobody wants. We actually have all the leverage but the way the club handles business one would never know. Please don't buy in and become more of a headache, I'm sure all those clubs lining up to reject you will be impressed
Cristiano Ronaldo (I stay)

I would say it’s 95% infuriating
because he only cares about Ronaldo.
He ain’t staying another year.
Last thing I could find is that a judge dismissed the case against him in Las Vegas court last June. Did he also not sign the settlement, in which case he’d probably be OK.
If 42 year old Ronaldo is good enough for the Portugal 2026 squad then you truly are fecked.
Not to start but off the bench no doubt. Okay a couple minutes of so. I highly doubt he will have any impact at that time.
That's the narrative he will push. He helped push Arnold into spending big this transfer window. Therefore is committed to staying to making sure the club is in the CL next season where he will help them win. H will want a contract extension this season as a reward for his contribution this transfer window.
Our saviour once again.
So you are suggesting we take the option up on the additional year of his contract then?
So in other words Utd can't find taker, change narrative to Ronaldo buying into Erik
Not only buying into Erik, as that would appear to look self-absorbed and narcissistic. But helping push Arnold into spending big for Erik's sake would make him sound heroic.
Spin doctor.
Feckin damp squib for the end of the transfer window.
If he starts scoring goals again I don't care what the narrative is.
Antony would put chances on a plate
And that he can do. Hope he gets back in shape and silence the critics.
Another good thing of him staying is that we don’t sign that flop Depay who everyone is overrating as if he were benzema.
I have no idea why anyone even has even a slight inclination that we would sell...Ronaldo...to....Chelsea. Its freakin Ronaldo. Just the idea of him banging in goals against us in important games twice this year will mean we won't do it. I don't care if he's 50 and only has one leg. This isn't happening. People on here are mad to think this would ever happen.
Spoken like a true fanboi.
Tbf I don't see why we should send him to Chelsea either. And I'd be happy to see him go (elsewhere)
I wouldnt want him to stay in the league either.. but if no one else wants him, Chelsea are welcome to him.. Rather see him play for Chelsea than stinking the place out here.
I’m not a fanboy at all…I just realize that we won’t sell a club icon to a bitter rival. There’s no upside. That’s sports…the idea that we would is mad. I wouldn’t care tbh, but it’s not happening.
I would love to sell him to sporting or any other league. I even really wouldn’t care if we sold him to Chelsea. But it’s just crazy to think the club actually would.
I bet every links other than the Chelsea, Bayern ones were made up by the media. There was no way in hell that he would have gone to Napoli, A.Madird, Sporting. OM.
Load of bullshit to tarnish his reputation.
Load of bullshit to tarnish his reputation.
We know how toxic he is within a club so why not sell him to a rival? And for Sporting's sake, I rather not inflict him on to that club. They deserve better.
You basically are saying it is crazy, mad to sell him to Chelsea. What I don’t get is why it’s. Do you know why you think it crazy and mad to do so?
Mendes is supposed to be some super agent. Can't even find his star client a new club.
Getting rid of Ronaldo will be the best piece of business Manchester United do this summer
Got his 37 year old client a 500k a week deal.
Yeap. I am praying to Jesus, Mohammad, Buddha and Krishna to make it happen. 24hrs left.
We need a clean slate.
He could have gotten that deal from multiple clubs last season. True test was this year and he couldn't deliver.
Arsenal, Liverpool, City, Chelsea. They all sell players to each other. Why the feck should we be worried about sending a 38 year old forward to any of them? Have some confidence in Ten Hag and the team he's building, and that it'll be better than Chelsea with or without Ronaldo
Watching the anti crew lap up every single clearly false rumour was a painful few weeks.
"He's off to (looks up some Moldovan minnow in the champs league qualifiers) lads"
3 of them made it clear they didn't want to be worshiped though.
Yeah it was dismissed.
Ok thanks for the update. So the MLS is an option then. But I'd doubt he would fancy a move there. In his perspective even us and the Europa League is well beneath him.
the intrinsic narrative nearly all reports are true and what Ronnie posted is false is puzzling.
If he stays then hopefully we can put this all behind us, he works his arse off and we have one last season of Ronaldo to look back on fondly
That's a bit too hopeful imho.
I once worked for a narcissistic asshole and such guys are delusional af about themselves. They have a special talent to find someone or something else to blame when things don't go as they want to. Anything but their fault. Worst thing is they sincerely believe in that shite.
Ronaldo and his agent came up with a statement that United should allow him to go should a "suitable" offer come. And definitely no bids were made.
Of all the reports, the only one Ronaldo openly said as fake (which it was) was the link to Sporting. Everything else wasn't commented on.
Its similar to the summer transfer window in 2021 when Mendes was whoring him around the old continent and there were reports of the same.

“I just did a Rooney. It was never about CL or my own personal records I’m really just the GOAT team player. I told Jorge while he was planning my holiday to make it seem like I was shamelessly being touted to any club with a CL spot and a pulse but it was all part of my super secret transfer plan to put pressure on the club. I am as you say a “muppet” and had I not gone round Europe United wouldn’t have Casemiro, Antony and Dubravka.”
His PR machine will be fully operational.
In other words no one wants him so he’s happy to stay and collect £500K a week at a major club with global appeal ? As long as ETH continues with the route of Ronaldo isn’t a starter and Ronaldo works for the team or not at all and keeps his ego in check then we’ll just have to ride it out for a year.
A disaster if he’s as toxic in the dressing room as reported. I really believe shifting him could have been the difference between success and failure this year.
