MOSCOW, 17 Aug. Portuguese Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo has two options to continue his career — German Borussia Dortmund and Portuguese Sporting CP, reports AS. Previously, Sky Sports claimed that the Red Devils could terminate the contract with 37 -year-old Portuguese, if he does not change his attitude to the matter. After the end of the match of the second round of the championship of England with Brentford (0:4), Ronaldo refused to shake hands with head coach Eric ten Hag, and also ignored the request of coach Steve McLaren to thank the club's fans for their support after the match. Borussia lost striker Sebastien Alle. 28-year-old Aller, who signed a contract with Borussia in early July, left the team's training camp on July 19 due to poor health. Later, during the examination, he was diagnosed with a malignant tumor of the testicle, for the treatment of which the player will undergo chemotherapy. Instead, the club signed striker Anthony Modest, but the 34-year-old may not give the club the same result as Ronaldo. According to the source, contacts have already been established between the Portuguese and Borussia. Last season, Sporting became the winner of the Portuguese championship and will play in the Champions League. Ronaldo began his adult career at the club, however, according to a source, the striker will have to take a pay cut if he wants to return. It was previously reported that the Portuguese intends to leave Manchester United before the first round of the English Premier League (EPL), as dissatisfied with the fact that the club will not play in the Champions League. Ronaldo himself called the rumors about his desire to leave and the unsuccessful negotiations of his agent Jorge Mendes with representatives of the Mancunians on this issue a lie. Ronaldo moved to Manchester United from the Italian Juventus in the summer of 2021. He is a five-time winner of the Golden Ball, five-time winner of the Champions League, European champion in 2016.
