Ronaldo Issued Bayern Munich or Chelsea Transfer Ultimatum to Agent Mendes Before Man Utd Exit

Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly issued a “Bayern Munich or Chelsea” ultimatum to his former agent when pushing for the exits at Manchester United.

The Portuguese superstar first expressed a desire to bring a second stint at Old Trafford to a close in the summer of 2022, with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner eager to find a Champions League stage on which to compete.

Ronaldo has also parted company with Jorge Mendes, the so-called ‘super agent’ that has managed his remarkable career at the very highest level. El Mundo reports that professional ties broke down there as Mendes was unable to deliver the move that Ronaldo demanded and had asked questions of some big career calls from the 37-year-old – including his decision to leave Real Madrid for Juventus in 2018.

Chelsea owner Todd Boehly had initially expressed interest in taking Ronaldo, only to be met by opposition from then Blues boss Thomas Tuchel, while Bayern CEO Oliver Khan revealed that the Bundesliga giants decided against a move that did not “fit our philosophy” after holding internal discussions.
