Chelsea owner Todd Boehly could make a second attempt to bring Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo to Stamford Bridge in January after reports suggested that the 37-year-old will be allowed to leave Old Trafford in the next transfer window.
According to the Telegraph, the Portuguese superstar can depart the Red Devils in the next window should a suitable offer come in with Erik ten Hag willing to part ways with Ronaldo, having worked hard to keep the frontman in the summer. It is understood that Boehly was keen to bring the 37-year-old to west London over the summer with his future in major doubt, mainly due to United's failure to qualify for the Champions League.
However, would it be a sensible move for the Blues to make a second attempt to sign the footballing icon in January with Graham Potter now in charge following the dismissal of Thomas Tuchel? There is no doubt of the quality that Ronaldo still possesses at 37. The attacker shone in a gloomy season for his side last term, scoring an impressive 24 goals in 38 appearances whilst the Red Devils finished sixth in the Premier League and failed to reach the latter stages of the Champions League or either domestic cup.
