Cristiano Ronaldo’s desire to leave Manchester United has reached a new low after Barcelona declined to sign him.
Despite his history with LaLiga rivals Real Madrid, the Portuguese captain was offered to the LaLiga giants.
Ronaldo is determined to leave Manchester United this summer, and he has failed to report to the club’s pre-season tour of Asia due to “family reasons.”
However, the 37-year-old’s exit strategy has become more desperate.
Ronaldo’s agent, Jorge Mendes, has offered him to top European clubs but has been unable to find a buyer for the striker.
The player was rejected by Atletico Madrid on the grounds that they cannot afford to fund the transfer because of their financial situation, while Real Madrid have no intention of re-signing him.
Spanish radio station Cope has outlined how Mendes even sensationally offered his client to Barcelona this summer but received a negative response.
That Ronaldo would rather play for the Catalan club next season rather than United speaks volumes of his intentions to leave.
