Despite Ronaldo's Portugal team's upcoming World Cup opener against Ghana, there will be a lot of discussion about the forward's future because of his departure from Manchester United, which made him a free agent. Last summer, Chelsea was rumored to be interested in the 37-year-old, but Thomas Tuchel rejected any suggestions from club owner Todd Boehly to sign him.
It is claimed that Ronaldo wouldn't match the style of play being introduced at Stamford Bridge with Graham Potter now serving as the head coach, and there are still no plans to sign him. Nkunku, 25, is being pursued by the Blues, who are apparently confident of securing a £50 million trade for him.
Any additional signings in the forward positions would be contingent on exits, as Juventus and AC Milan are both interested in Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech, respectively.
Although the Red Devils have no constraints on where the attacker can move next, Newcastle United is also not interested in signing Ronaldo, according to reports.
With a contract worth £2 million a week being offered by an undisclosed Saudi Arabian club, there is expected to be significant interest from the Middle East.
Fabrizio Romano claimed in a video on his YouTube channel that Real Madrid had also disqualified themselves from the search for Ronaldo.
Additionally, according to Calciomercato, Juventus may decide to sell Weston McKennie for €25 million to €30 million and return Leandro Paredes to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer in order to raise money to recruit Lazio's Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. The summer contract of Adrien Rabiot expires, and Bianconeri's ability to sign the Serbian international may depend on whether or not he signs a lucrative new contract.
Konrad Laimer, a midfielder for RB Leipzig, reportedly turned down a transfer to Chelsea in favor of joining Bayern Munich this summer, according to Christian Falk. The international player from Austria has been a member of Die Roten Bullen since 2017, but when his contract ends at the end of the current campaign, he is expected to leave as a free agent.
Internazionale is trying to replace left-back Robin Gosens, whose January departure is looking more and more possible. The Serie A team is considering Adrien Truffert of Stade Rennais. The 21-year-old has been observed by scouts 11 times, and each time they have returned with favorable reviews despite his expected €15 million valuation.
Antonio Silva, a central defender for Benfica, is being watched by Aston Villa, Fulham, and Juventus. The 19-year-old experienced a breakthrough season that even led to his selection for the Portugal World Cup squad.
In additional major news, Hoffenheim is searching for a new striker and has Luca Waldschmidt of Wolfsburg in mind. The 26-year-old, who has played just 322 minutes across all competitions this season and has yet to record a direct goal contribution, is even said to have made his initial contacts.
