Ronaldo’s reason for not joining up with his teammates has been said to be personal as he battles family issues albeit the idea of a paycut the players were sold is said to sadden the five-time FIFA Player of the Year winner.

CNN Portugal reports on Friday that an unnamed Middle East club has offered the 37-year-old an eye-watering amount of cash to join them. The club is said to be Saudi Arabian.

The club would not only pay United a transfer fee of around £25m to sign Ronaldo but they would offer him a salary in the region of £105m-per-season over two years.

The lucrative package also includes £20m for Ronaldo’s representative Jorge Mendes.

United paid Juventus an initial £12.85m to bring Ronaldo back to Old Trafford last summer, with the player signing a two-year contract with the option of a third.

The Saudi offer arrives after Ronaldo requested United listen to offers for him last month.
