Ronaldo Open to Napoli Move After Premier League Snub

Ronaldo is in the process of leaving Manchester United and has reportedly spoken to Napoli about a move. His advisers have also made contact with other Premier League clubs. However, some say that the Portuguese player is risky and is unlikely to return to the Premier League.

Ronaldo's stance on Premier League snub

The Manchester United superstar's stance on the Premier League's Player of the Season award has drawn some criticism. The former Real Madrid star was not included in the eight-man shortlist, despite ranking third in the top flight goalscoring charts. The other nominees were Arsenal's Bukayo Saka, West Ham's Jarrod Bowen, Southampton's James Ward-Prowse and Tottenham Hotspur's Javier Hernandez. koraonline

Following the snub, many Manchester United supporters have wondered whether the player-manager relationship is getting strained. But the manager, Eddie Ten Hag, has defended his decision, saying he would rather have Ronaldo in his side for the rest of the season.

During the summer, the Portuguese international asked for a transfer from Manchester United. Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid both disassociated themselves from the move. Ronaldo also turned down the club's offer of a reduced role. As a result, his future at Manchester United is uncertain nine days before the transfer deadline.

His stance on coming off the bench against Tottenham

Cristiano Ronaldo is in a pickle. He hasn't started a Premier League match for over a year and the prospect of sitting on the bench is too difficult for him. After all, he's close to his 38th birthday, and he can't just excuse himself. His manager, Ralf Rangnick, has also contemplated dropping him, but has decided against it.

The Portuguese star's stance on coming off the bench has been criticised in the past, but it's now being defended by the Manchester United hierarchy. The former Real Madrid star's stance was praised by some, but others have questioned his motivation. In a recent friendly against Rayo Vallecano, Ronaldo had been substituted but later returned to the starting XI.

The Portuguese star is a brilliant influence in the dressing room. But his public petulance is not helpful to his teammates. Despite this, he was adamant that he would not come on against Tottenham.

His relationship with Casemiro

Manchester United's new manager Erik ten Hag is trying to re-shape the squad without Cristiano Ronaldo, who has expressed interest in returning to Italy. However, it is not clear whether the Portuguese international would accept an offer from Italy, or if he would remain at United. The saga is likely to dominate headlines until Aug. 31, but the Portuguese international is now open to a move to Italy.

Manchester United are looking for a new striker, but will not rush to sign a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo - who is under contract until 2020. Instead, Erik ten Hag has asked his midfielders to share goalscoring duties. After Manchester United's 2-0 win over Omonia Nicosia on Sunday, Casemiro scored the third goal of United's last two games.

Manchester United's season hasn't been a good one. The club have had managerial issues. The latest reshuffle sees Erik ten Hag in charge of the team until 2022/23 season. The new manager does not have a Champions League slot, but Ronaldo has already indicated his desire to leave the club. As a result, two Serie A clubs have stepped forward to make a bid for the Portuguese star.

His stance on returning to Italy

Despite a poor start at Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo is open to a return to Italy and a move to Napoli. According to Fabrizio Romano of Sky Italy, Ronaldo has requested a bench spot against Udinese after being snubbed from the starting eleven. The Portugal international then came off the bench and played the last few minutes in a 2-2 draw. The winger looked to have scored the winner late on, but was booked when he took off his shirt in celebration. The rumours about a return to the Premier League are already surfacing, but the players aren't making any official announcement yet.

Manchester United have denied rumors that the Portuguese star is on the verge of a move away. The club are insistent that Ronaldo isn't for sale, and that he is part of Erik ten Hag's plans. If Ronaldo wants to return to the Premier League, he will need to win over his new manager.
