Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo is said to be willing to take a 30% pay cut to leave Manchester United this window.
That’s what his agent, Jorge Mendes, is telling the elite clubs who might be interested in signing him.
Ronaldo is said to be keen on returning to Spain to play for Atletico Madrid, but the club are firmly opposed to the move.
Atletico are currently not in a financial position to make the move, and it is widely assumed that a return to Real Madrid is out of the question.
Barcelona was even offered the opportunity to sign the 37-year-old but instead chose to sign Robert Lewandowski.
Ronaldo is no longer the player who terrorised opposing clubs, but he is still a productive goalscorer.
Last season, despite playing for a poor United team, he scored 18 Premier League goals and six in the Champions League.
