Rumour Has It: Ronaldo ready for Man Utd exit as he courts move to Messi´s PSG

Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United may be coming to a premature end.

The Portuguese forward has struggled since Ralf Rangnick’s arrival as interim manager in December.

United are also battling to finish in the Premier League’s top four.

TOP STORY – RONALDO COURTS MOVE TO MESSI’S PSG

FootballTransfers claims that Ronaldo has decided that he will leave Manchester United if they do not qualify for the Champions League, with a move to join Lionel Messi at Paris Saint-Germain on his agenda.

Speculation about Ronaldo’s future at Old Trafford ramped up after he missed Sunday’s Manchester derby due to a hip flexor injury and flew to Portugal.

The report that claims that Ronaldo returning to Juventus has been ruled out, along with his original Portuguese club Sporting CP, with the five-time Ballon d’Or courting a move to Paris.

His lack of game time this season is a huge reason behind his decision.
