Cristiano Ronaldo is inching closer and closer to a Juventus exit, with reliable reports admitting that the forward could leave the club for the right offer.
Ronaldo's Juventus contract expires next summer, and it is highly unlikely that he will sign a new deal. Ronaldo's Serie A adventure looks to be coming to an end, and it remains to be seen where he goes.
He will not be short of suitors. Ronaldo has been linked with some of the biggest clubs in the world, but given his high wages it will be interesting to see which club makes a concrete bid for him.
We look at the 3 realistic destinations for Cristiano Ronaldo.
#3 Manchester United
Cristiano Ronaldo is regarded as a Premier League great after enjoying a stunning spell with Manchester United.
It was at Manchester United where Ronaldo made his name as one of the best in the world. The Portuguese superstar is still remembered fondly by the Old Trafford faithful, with many hoping for a fairytale return for one of the greatest players of all time.
Ronaldo has been linked with Manchester United many times, but there has been no reliability in those rumours. However, with his Juventus contract expiring next season, Ronaldo looks likely to leave the Serie A giants soon. Manchester United will definitely keep an eye.

#2 Paris Saint-Germain
With Kylian Mbappe likely to join Real Madrid soon, it has been suggested that Paris Saint-Germain could replace the Frenchman with Cristiano Ronaldo.
For many, this would be a dream come true. If Ronaldo does join the Ligue 1 giants, he will link up with Lionel Messi, and two of the greatest players to have played the game will play together for the first time. Apart from Messi, Ronaldo will also be reunited with centre-back Sergio Ramos.
However, Paris Saint-Germain have stretched their budget with the arrival of Messi, and it has been reported that they will have to sell players in order to balance the books. The club are also interested in signing Rennes' sensation Eduardo Camavinga, so it remains to be seen how they replace Mbappe.
#1 Manchester City
With Harry Kane having announced that he will stay at Tottenham Hotspur this summer, Manchester City are now leading the race to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester City are in the market for a prolific goalscorer, and Kane was their primary target this summer. However, the England international has now made it clear that he has no intention of leaving Spurs this season, and it has also been reported that Cristiano Ronaldo has been offered to Manchester City.
Manchester United fans will be disappointed by the news, but Manchester City will sign a short-term solution to improve their attack. Ronaldo guarantees goals, and Manchester City have the financial means to make a deal happen.
