Thomas Tuchel is passionate about soccer tactics. The German grew up in the new German school and was influenced by Pep Guardiola time in Germany to develop his career, which is currently going through one of its best moments after being European champion with Chelsea. He is trying to bring the Blues back to the top of the Premier League.

The German has a major challenge ahead of him this summer. The change in Chelsea's ownership and the multiple departures of several key players leave him with the challenge of reshaping the squad. For his attack he has already closed Raheem Sterling, he also wants Raphinha and he has been presented with a unique market opportunity, that of Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese player returned to Manchester United from Juventus just one season ago, but his time at Old Trafford has not gone as he had hoped. Although his campaign was good individually, United has finished one of its worst seasons in the Premier League era and has been left out of the Champions League, the competition in which the Portuguese wishes to play.

Ronaldo does not fit in Tuchel's plans

This signing, according to Daily Mail, is a perfect fit for the new owners. Todd Boehly sees the footballing and even more the commercial potential of ‘CR7’ arriving at Stamford Bridge, but Thomas Tuchel sees how his management could be affected if the signing finally happens.

Tuchel wanted to reshape his attack 'a la Klopp'. Sterling and Raphinha would be tasked with finding the goal from the flanks with Kai Havertz playing the role of 'false 9′. The arrival of Cristiano, now a center forward, would totally condition this plan and force the German coach to look for a new fit.
