Gary Neville has highlighted the problems a move for Cristiano Ronaldo could cause clubs as he branded his former team-mate a "magnet for trouble".
Ronaldo left Manchester United by mutual agreement in November, shortly after a controversial interview in which he criticised various elements and individuals at the Premier League club. He has put his next club move on hold while playing for Portugal at the World Cup, but the Selecao fell at the quarter-final stage against Morocco, leading to the dismissal of manager Fernando Santos.
The 37-year-old's reaction to the last-eight defeat did not go down brilliantly, with Ronaldo heading down the tunnel in tears, while he was dropped to the bench by Santos after a reported disagreement during the group stages. And Neville, who has been working as a pundit during the World Cup, is concerned that recent developments at club and international level might put off potential suitors.
