Thomas Tuchel has decided whether Chelsea should sign Cristiano Ronaldo following the Manchester United striker's intent to leave Old Trafford this summer. The 37-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from the Red Devils, and the west Londoners have emerged as a likely destination.
football.london understand that the Blues have sounded out a move for the Portugal international, with Ronaldo keen to ply his trade in the Champions League this season. According to ESPN, the evergreen talisman is open to a move to Stamford Bridge, but Chelsea remain hesitant as to whether to escalate their interest, with Tuchel believed to have been granted the final say.
And, despite Todd Boehly having laid out the groundwork to complete a deal following a meeting with super agent Jorge Mendes, Tuchel is not convinced. The Independent say that the German has 'little interest' in welcoming Ronaldo to west London amid growing developments regarding Raheem Sterling's future.
