Manchester United is ready to terminate Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract and will wait until the whole interview is released before making a decision.
Due to his explosive interview attacking the team and manager Erik ten Hag, Ronaldo’s United career was left dangling by a thread. In the event that a buyer cannot be found, United should attempt to terminate Ronaldo’s contract.
Additionally, it would be the most immediate action, to take charge and prevent the situation from escalating and being influenced by the market.
Now, the Telegraph has claimed that Ronaldo’s contract will go off only on one condition. But this could occur only if Ronaldo does not request a payoff to his contract, which expires on June 30, 2023.
According to reliable sources, this will not entail paying for the final six months of his extremely lucrative contract. Ronaldo makes close to £500,000 every week, so it would be incredible to just wave goodbye to that sum of money and receive no compensation. But it might be worthwhile to just pay the price to get rid of Ronaldo.
In the end, the club took a similar choice regarding Alexis Sanchez, writing off a sizable sum so he can depart the team early with both parties consent. Ronaldo would likely demand payment, which would put United in a difficult situation.
To avoid having to go through the scenario of expensively cancelling his contract, United must take the initiative to attempt to arrange a transfer as soon as feasible.
This situation must be resolved in some way in January as the club won’t allow this case to overshadow the team’s progress in the remainder of the season.
