Ronaldo also has an option for another year. According to information from the “Telegraph”, the superstar wants to fulfill his contract until 2023 despite the internal quarrels and a possible missed Champions League qualification.
Manchester United are currently sixth in the Premier League. There are four points missing on the first qualifying place for the premier class.
Ronaldo is therefore unlikely to force an early farewell this summer, according to the report. He is hoping for a fresh start under the new head coach, who is due to take over in the summer. Erik ten Hag and Mauricio Pochettino are among those being discussed.

A return to his Portuguese home would have been postponed by at least a year.
Chances for FC Porto probably rather small
20 years ago, Ronaldo started his professional career at Sporting Lisbon. After a first stint at Man United from 2003 to 2009, the now 37-year-old returned to England last year. In between, Ronaldo was also under contract with Real Madrid and Juventus Turin.
In 33 games this season, the goalscorer has scored 18 goals for Manchester, 12 of them in the Premier League. So a farewell is off the table for now. Especially since Porto would probably not have the best cards if Ronaldo returned to Portugal, but his former club Sporting.
