Cristiano Ronaldo is 'motivated' to help Manchester United have a successful season after failing to secure a deadline-day transfer to AC Milan.
Almost two months ago, the 37-year-old megastar made his feelings clear to United and explained how he wanted to leave this summer. But with transfer window now shut, he'll definitely to remain a Red Devil - at least until January. Ronaldo still had a glimpse of hope at the eleventh hour, though, and it came from San Siro.
As reported by the MEN, a theory emerged that Milan could make a move for the United legend if they lost Rafael Leao, who'd been tipped to join Chelsea. However, the 23-year-old forward - a teammate of Ronaldo's at international level for Portugal - was ultimately deemed too expensive for the Blues, as AC slapped a whopping £130m price tag on Leao's head.
