There was a time this summer when Chelsea were offered the chance to sign Cristiano Ronaldo. The club's new co-owner Todd Boehly was keen on the idea but it's understood Thomas Tuchel turned down the opportunity.
It's understandable that Boehly would want a superstar like Ronaldo for business reasons. Likewise, it's understandable Tuchel doesn't want the 37-year-old, who has been criticised for his attitude and his adaptation to press in a demanding system.
One man who knows all about that is Ralf Rangnick, who was the interim manager at Manchester United last season and worked with Ronaldo. The Portugal international still finished last season as the club's top goalscorer, but was widely criticised.
