It is not a secret that Cristiano Ronaldo is uncomfortable atManchester United, so his team is now trying to move on and transfer him to another club. With the 2022 summer market still open, the Portuguese forward could be involved in a very ambitious swap that would move a Napoli star to the Premier League this season.

Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Old Trafford in 2021 in order to be part of Manchester United’s reconstruction. Although the expectations were high, the team did not make it to Champions League’s spots, a tournament that the Portuguese needs to play every year. That’s why the forward could be looking for a new team that can offer him a place in the competition and the opportunity to win it again.

But the 2022 summer transfer window has not been easy for Cristiano. Several teams denied him the possibility to defend their colors despite their need to sign a forward like Chelsea, Atletico de Madrid or Bayern Munich. But now, another club has appeared as the best option for the Portuguese striker and Manchester United to end their deal and move on.

The 2022 summer transfer window closes in August 31 for the Premier League, so it is important that both clubs agree to this deal as soon as possible. Cristiano Ronaldo should have no problem with this move as he would be returning to the Serie A, a league that he knows very well with his Juventus’ past.
