Todd Boehly sent Cristiano Ronaldo Chelsea transfer warning amid 'horrible' Man Utd scenario

Chelsea have been warned against signing Cristiano Ronaldo on a free transfer in the January transfer window.

Todd Boehly met with Ronaldo's agent, Jorge Mendes, during the summer to discuss a potential move for the 37-year-old but was shot down by former Blues boss Thomas Tuchel. Tuchel's decision ultimately contributed to his eventual sacking with Graham Potter replacing him as manager at Stamford Bridge in September.

Ronaldo mutually agreed to terminate his contract with United during the World Cup after a scathing interview with Piers Morgan saw him criticise his teammates, Erik ten Hag and the Glazer family. The Blues signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Raheem Sterling over the summer but are said to be keen on reinforcing their attack in the new year.
