Todd Boehly's transfer dream of bringing one of the game's best goalscorers in Cristiano Ronaldo to Stamford Bridge was consistently squashed by Thomas Tuchel, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang signed instead. But that has stopped the Chelsea co-owner from giving up on.
The Manchester United striker looks almost certain of a move away from Old Trafford after seeming to fall out with manager Erik ten Hag. Ronaldo, 37, was excluded from the United squad for this weekend's 1-1 draw with Chelsea as part of his punishment for an incident in midweek.
With the Red Devils comfortably 2-0 up against Tottenham on Wednesday night, Ronaldo refused to come on for Ten Hag and walked down the tunnel before the final whistle. Whilst his team-mates celebrated an important victory against one of the top four rivals, Ronaldo had already left the stadium.
