MOSCOW, Aug 18 Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo Jorge's agent Mendes is actively working on the player's transfer to Borussia Dortmund, according to CBS Sports. Earlier media reported that the 37-year-old Portuguese wants to leave United due to the team's non-participation in the Champions League, but the club from Manchester refuses to terminate the player's contract early. According to the source, the most «powerful obstacle» to the departure of Ronaldo is United owner Joel Glaser, who would like to keep the Portuguese. He repeatedly emphasized its commercial value during internal discussions. However, opinions are emerging in Manchester United's sporting department that letting Ronaldo leave may be the best approach in building a team. In this situation, Mendes continues to search for a new club for Ronaldo and has now settled on Borussia, which he asks to start negotiations with United. . The parties are considering both a full-fledged transfer and a loan of a player. It is noted that Borussia Dortmund would like to replenish the squad with one striker after Dortmund newcomer Sebastien Allais was diagnosed with testicular cancer, in connection with which he will have to miss several months.
