Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is not sold on the idea of signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United this summer, according to The Independent.
Ronaldo has one more year remaining on his contract with Manchester United. However, he has asked the Red Devils to allow him to leave the club if they receive a satisfactory offer this summer.
Napoli have been credited with an interest in signing the Portugal international, while Bayern Munich are also aware of his situation. Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly has met with his agent Jorge Mendes to discuss the state of affairs.
There have been suggestions that the Blues are considering a move for Ronaldo, with the new ownership intrigued by the idea. However, they are yet to make a final decision regarding the same.
The owners, though, are prepared to allow Tuchel to make decisions regarding transfers this summer.And, the German has 'little interest' in pursuing a deal for the 37-year-old, according to the aforementioned source.
Ronaldo thus faces the prospect of staying at Manchester United beyond this transfer window. Mendes has been investigating the possibility of a move for his client, but has so far found options limited, as per the report.
