Throughout the summer transfer window, Cristiano Ronaldo saw himself become the subject of many speculations regarding his future at Manchester United, to the extent quite a lot of media narratives were on clubs not wanting to sign the player.

The Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo acknowledged that he turned down a €350 million offer to depart in the summer, a time rumors speculated there were no offers coming in for the star.

Numerous teams, including Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Sporting Lisbon, Real Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain, were connected to the 37-year-old.

The unknown Saudi Arabian team made a startling offer to the Portugal captain, which would have made Ronaldo the highest-paid player in history.

Now that he has given his justification, he can decline their approach.

“It’s true, yes it’s true,” Ronaldo told Piers Morgan Uncensored about the €350m offer to play in Saudi Arabia for two seasons.

“But what the press kept saying, the garbage, is that nobody wants me, which is completely wrong.
