Axel Hellman, the chairman of Eintracht Frankfurt, reportedly stated that the club was given the opportunity to sign Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.
After his shocking interview with Piers Morgan and the subsequent mutual release from United, a new rumor about what Ronaldo might have become has emerged.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was made available to Eintracht, according to chairman Hellmann, during the summer transfer period.
“He was even offered to us,” he admitted to DAZN, adding: “I have the feeling he was offered to every Champions League club.”
Prior to the end of the 2021–22 season, Ronaldo made it clear that he wanted to leave Old Trafford after just one season of being back at United.
However, a transfer didn’t happen, and under Erik ten Hag’s new leadership, he had been unable to have any kind of an impact on the team, leading to his messy departure before the World Cup.
Ronaldo has been training at Valdebebas since Portugal was eliminated from the World Cup, but he appears set to sign with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
