Cristiano Ronaldo to inform Real Madrid of PSG offer
Cristiano Ronaldo’s future is the subject of much speculation in recent weeks after reports emanating from Portugal claimed that the 4-time Ballon d’Or winner was unhappy in Spain and wanted to leave the Santiago Bernabeu outfit.
According to Spanish daily Marca, the Portuguese sensation has received an offer from Paris Saint-Germain and is set to inform president Florentino Perez about it. The cash-rish French outfit are willing to go to any extent needed to secure the signing of Ronaldo. Perez, on the other hand, hopes to convince Ronaldo to continue in the Spanish capital and opt against moving to another club.
The report also adds that Chinese Super League outfits are ready with world record bids for the Portuguese, but Ronaldo does not fancy leaving Europe at just 32 years of age.
