Cristiano Ronaldo has received a transfer invitation from Udinese after spending much of the summer pushing for a move away from Manchester United.
WHAT HAPPENED? The Portuguese forward was eager to find a way out of Old Trafford during the last window as he sought to remain on a Champions League stage and in contention for major silverware. No deal was done, forcing the five-time Ballon d’Or winner to stay put, but the former Juventus star has been asked to consider a return to Italy by Udinese goalkeeper Marco Silvestri.
Ronaldo has stated on his future: “My ambition is great. I want to be present at the World Cup and European Championships. I feel very motivated. My journey is not finished yet.”
Reacting to DAZN sharing those comments, Silvestri said: “Come to Udinese.” That message drew a response from the Serie A outfit, as they posted an eye emoji.
