Chelsea owner Todd Boehly is said to have met Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes to discuss a potential transfer swoop for the Portuguese star as he grows disgruntled at the lack of business Manchester United have done so far this summer.
The Red Devils' inactivity so far in this summer transfer window hasn't just frustrated the supporters, who saw the Glazers take another £11million out of the club, but also their star player. Talks with prime target Frenkie de Jong continue to drag on but the length of these discussions has seemingly jeopardised the chances of Erik ten Hag's side landing three Ajax targets in particular.
The current Eredivisie champions have sold three of their biggest hitters already this summer with Sebastian Haller's move to Dortmund the latest and it is understood that it will take significant money for either of Jurrien Timber, Antony and Arsenal target Lisandro Martinez to leave this summer. A big blow for ten Hag whose first summer transfer window isn't going the way many expected it to have so far. It Is understood that Ronaldo, who was disgruntled at parts last season, is weighing up his options as he is feeling underwhelmed at the business conducted so far in Manchester on the incoming side of things.
