Carlo Ancelotti's verdict on Cristiano Ronaldo could encourage Todd Boehly to accelerate the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo. The 37-year-old striker was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea on a number of occasions before he and Manchester United parted company.
As the five-time Ballon d'Or winner set his sights on World Cup glory with Portugal, talk of a move to Stamford Bridge quietened down. But, after Fernando Santos' side were knocked out of the tournament by Morocco in the quarter-final, speculation regarding his future has sparked fresh interest.
It's believed that Ronaldo has received offers from the Middle East and Australia but he’s said to be holding out for an approach from a Champions League side. In the meantime, the Portuguese star has returned to Valdebebas, the Real Madrid training complex, to maintain his fitness, according to Spanish outlet Relevo.
