The player’s agent Jorge Mendes has held talks with the Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly but any deal will depend on whether Thomas Tuchel is interested
on Monday and United are unsure whether the situation will allow him to fly with the squad to Thailand on Friday for the start of the club’s pre-season tour.
The Chelsea manager plans to mould a versatile, fluid attack and has allowed Romelu Lukaku to join Internazionale on loan. Lukaku struggled to adapt to Tuchel’s system last season – the Belgium striker did not press enough and lacked mobility – and it is likely that signing Ronaldo would create similar problems.
. United, who have insisted Ronaldo is going nowhere and are unlikely to want to lose him to a domestic rival, finished sixth and often lacked cohesion.There is pressure on Chelsea to step up their summer business. They remain in talks with Manchester City over a £50m deal for Raheem Sterling and are waiting to see if Barcelona will beat them to the signing of Raphinha.
