Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane said last season that Cristiano Ronaldo would be capable of scoring 50 goals for Chelsea.
Ronaldo, as reported by the Manchester Evening News , wants to leave Old Trafford after becoming frustrated at the club's lack of transfer activity this summer. Ronaldo is also said to be "upset" about a 25 per cent reduction on players' salaries after failing to qualify for the Champions League for the forthcoming season. A lack of Champions League football is also said to be a reason behind his wishes to leave.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner did not report for training on Monday and Tuesday, with "family reasons" being cited for his absence. He returned to United almost a year ago from Juventus with the ambition of bringing silverware back to Old Trafford, but the club experienced its worst season in years, despite Ronaldo helping himself to 24 goals.
