Solskjaer open to Cristiano Ronaldo signing, Move could see him become Man United’s top earner

Cristiano Ronaldo-Juventus

Manchester United are thought to be keeping tabs on the Juventus attacker, Cristiano Ronaldo, this summer.

The 36-year-old could leave the Italian club despite their Champions League qualification, and he has been linked with a return to the Premier League.

According to agents connected to Juventus, the Old Trafford outfit are monitoring the player’s situation at the Italian club, and they could make a move to bring him back to Manchester.

The report further states that Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still in touch with the player, and he would not hesitate to sanction a signing of the 36-year-old provided the deal makes sense financially.

If Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Manchester United, his wages would see him become the top earner at the club, surpassing David De Gea.

However, his deal at Juventus expires next summer, and therefore he could be available for a knockdown price.

On top of that, Cristiano Ronaldo’s huge commercial appeal could offset the costs of his wage bill.

Manchester United could definitely use a quality attacker next season, and Cristiano Ronaldo still has the ability to make a big difference in the Premier League.

The 36-year-old has scored 39 goals in 52 games for his club and country this season, and he could help Manchester United challenge for the Premier League title next year.

Edinson Cavani’s impact at Old Trafford this season is a reminder that experienced players can still perform at a high level.
