Super-agent Mendes has contacted United about taking on his high-profile client and former Red Devil Ronaldo.
However, according to the website, United would only recommend signing the Portuguese international if he reduces his take-home pay by 50%
.DON'T MISS:According to the paper, the Old Trafford club is willing to pay Ronaldo €15 million (£13 million) on a two-year contract.
Ronaldo allegedly 'cannot believe' the contract at the moment, although he could rethink the bid at the end of the season.
>Following a decade of unprecedented achievement for Juventus, Andrea Pirlo's first season in charge has been disappointing.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The Turin club is currently fourth in Serie A, level on points with Napoli and AC Milan, with the Naples club edging them out on goal difference. Juve was also eliminated early from the Champions League by Porto.
DON'T MISS:
There is a very strong chance that the Italian team will not compete in Europe's elite competition next season. According to the article, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner could be hesitant to play in Europe's second-tier competition, the Europa League.
Mendes reportedly offered Ronaldo to PSG, Real Madrid, and Manchester United, believing that only these three clubs could afford the Juve star.
According to the paper, Madrid respectfully refused, although PSG allegedly showed little interest in Ronaldo. United, on the other hand, replied to Mendes, but only offered about half of what he actually receives after taxes - €31 million a year.
Is Cristiano Ronaldo a success at Juventus?
Despite being 36 years old, Ronaldo has preserved his ability to score goals for the Serie A club and remains a genuinely world-class goal hazard.
According to WhoScored, the ex-Madrid player has converted 32 times for Juventus this season in all competitions. He has scored more goals in the Italian top-flight than any other team.
Furthermore, Ronaldo has the best WhoScored average ranking in the entire Serie A and has clearly been a standout player in the category.
Nonetheless, the Champions League remains the ultimate frontier for Juventus, and Ronaldo has not taken them any closer to it during his tenure in Turin.
Is he the right transfer choice for Manchester United?
This summer will be a busy one for transfers, and a number of strikers have been mentioned as potential targets for United.
The Red Devils have been linked with Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland, who has 25 goals in the German Bundesliga this season. The 20-year-old is expected to cost £128 million to carry to Old Trafford, where he could play for United for the next decade.
Another player for whom the Red Devils are interested in Harry Kane. The Tottenham Hotspur striker is the Premier League's leading goal scorer, but sources say Daniel Levy will not let him leave for another English club - despite the fact that the England captain is valued at an eye-watering £175 million.
Ronaldo's transfer payments will almost certainly not be as high as those of Haaland or Kane, but he does demand exorbitant pay. Can United really justify paying so much for a 36-year-old player, even though he is one of the game's all-time greats?
In a perfect future, Kane or Haaland is the better long-term alternatives, but whether United is willing to spend the capital on any of them remains to be seen. Ronaldo may be brought in as a short-term option before a more financially stable frontman becomes available.
