Jorge Mendes, representative of Cristiano Ronaldo, had a meeting with the new owner of Chelsea

Cristiano Ronaldo has a current contract with Manchester United until June 30, 2023, but his continuity at the club is not certain. Despite the fact that ‘CR7’ finished an outstanding season at an individual level, the collective objectives were not met and there is speculation that he will leave in this transfer market.

Precisely, now a surprising possible option arises as a destination for the striker: Chelsea in England. According to The Athletic, a renowned English portal, last week there was a meeting in Portugal, in which Todd Boehly, the new owner of the ‘Blues’, and Jorge Mendes, representative of the Portuguese striker, participated.

According to the same source, various topics were discussed at the meeting and one of the points was the fate of Cristiano Ronaldo for the 2022-23 season. However, despite obtaining the precise information about the outstanding footballer, it is still not clear if the London team will fight for the signing.

Let’s remember that Chelsea is shortly to run out of its area reference, since Romelu Lukaku is getting ready to return to Inter Milan. Due to this loss in offense, coach Thomas Tuchel requires a suitable replacement and the profile of ‘CR7’ fits to fill that position.

For now, the ‘Blues’ board will analyze the data collected by Todd Boehly, who seems willing to invest to strengthen the squad. It is worth mentioning that until now, Cristiano has been linked to Roma in Italy, where he could meet again with DT José Mourinho; and recently with Bayern Munich.

How many goals did Cristiano score at United?

Cristiano Ronaldo was Manchester United’s top scorer in the Premier League, with 18 goals in total; while in the Champions League he got six celebrations in seven games. Despite the good performance that ‘CR7’ had, the collective level of the club was a great deficit in the 2021-22 academic year.
