One of the complications for his possible transfer is the salary of the Portuguese striker, who according to CBS reports, would be willing to suffer a significant cut in his salary, specifically 30%. This has been confirmed by his agent, Jorge Mendes, to the teams discouraged by Cristiano's salary, who would normally be receiving 30 million net per year.

The Red Devils are not interested in selling him, with Erik Ten Hag confirming on several occasions that he is counting on him for the coming campaign, and in recent days several clubs have ruled out the possibility of making a move to close his signing. PSG, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and Chelsea have all ruled out the possibility of signing the Portuguese star. And there is one more complication that makes his departure from Old Trafford almost impossible.

The clause that would complicate his departure from United

Cristiano Ronaldo has a clause to extend his Manchester United contract for one more season, that is, until the summer of 2024. One of the facilities that the Portuguese had to leave was that he only had one year left on his contract, but with the clause Manchester United can defend itself so that he can stay for a couple of more seasons.

The information was confirmed by Erik Ten Hag at a press conference: "I am well informed, there is also an option for his contract to be extended until 2024". Everything seems to indicate that he will have at least one more season playing at Old Trafford.
