Former Manchester United player Cristiano Ronaldo was 'offered' to Eintracht Frankfurt, according to the club's executive board member Axel Hellmann.
Ronaldo's sudden departure from Old Trafford came in the wake of the sensational claims he made against the club during his explosive interview with Piers Morgan. Yet even before the two-part special came to light, it was clear to see the 37-year-old's discontent at his current situation at United.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner had looked to leave United over the summer in pursuit of Champions League football, with Frankfurt now being revealed as one of the potential destinations for the Portugal international. The Bundesliga side, who await a round of 16 tie against Napoli in the UEFA competition, could have seen Ronaldo join their ranks earlier in the season.
