Kevin Campbell, a former Arsenal striker, believes that Cristiano Ronaldo will be successful at Chelsea if he ever signs with the Blues.
Ronaldo wishes to leave Manchester United after only a year at the club.
The Portugal captain’s transfer to Chelsea has been heavily speculated.
Campbell, however, told Football Insider that Ronaldo would score goals for Chelsea and that he could play for any Premier League club.
“Ronaldo could play for any team. He could play for any team in the Premier League. Listen, people questioned whether he would do it at Man United, but if it wasn’t for him, United would’ve finished in the bottom half. That is me being kind,” Campbell said.
He continued: “They struggled big time. Ronaldo put the team on his shoulders so many times. He single-handedly got them deep into the Champions League. Let’s be honest; they had no right to be there. He was phenomenal last season. Yes, it’s not the same Ronaldo, but he knows where the goal is. He can finish.”
“Chelsea creates chances. If you create chances for Ronaldo. he will score. He’s still an incredible goalscorer. I’m not surprised Chelsea are interested because they lack a prolific goalscorer. They wanted it to be Lukaku, but it didn’t work out.”
