Non-league side make first official approach for Cristiano Ronaldo with £35 per week offer

A non-league team have become the first club to make an official move for former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo, who departed the club earlier this week following a controversial interview with Piers Morgan.

Cheshire side AFC Crewe, who play in 14th tier of English football, announced their approach on Tuesday (November 22), generously offering to make the Portuguese international their 'highest paid player' with an enticing package of £35 per week.

Having been on a reported £515,385 per week during his stint at Old Trafford according to the Mirror , Ronaldo would have to be willing to take a £515,3500 per week pay cut in order to turn out for the Crewe and District Football League outfit.
