Man United in strong contention for Cristiano Ronaldo as Solskjaer decision is revealed

Manchester United are ready to snap up Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus this summer, according to reports.

And should the Portuguese icon be available, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ‘would not hesitate’ in sanctioning a move for his former team-mate.

Ronaldo, 36, is set to consider his options after Sunday’s Serie A final day, following a desperately disappointing season for the Old Lady.

Juve currently sit fifth in the table, trailing the Champions League places by a point.

But even if Andrea Pirlo’s side do clinch a top four berth, Ronaldo may opt to leave a year before his contract expires.

And according to The Athletic, Man United chiefs are ‘monitoring’ their former No7’s situation with increasing interest.

Solskjaer, 48, remains ‘in touch’ with Ronaldo, and even asked him for a character reference before signing Bruno Fernandes in January 2020.
