Cristiano Ronaldo has got what he wanted as his second spell at Manchester United comes to a bitter and unceremonious end.
But after the 37-year-old's contract was mutually terminated by his furious employers, the question turns to where Ronaldo will end up next. United made their decision off the back of Ronaldo's explosive interview with Piers Morgan, where along with criticising the club, he also outlined his plans to continue playing until he was 40.
Yet despite Ronaldo being available as a free agent, few clubs would be able to afford the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, whose £500,000-per-week wage made him United's top earner prior to his exit. According to Marca, Ronaldo has been 'torn' between the idea of a lucrative move to the Middle East or staying put in the Premier League and has made admiring glances at Newcastle United's riches.
