Manchester United should be ready to receive a significant offer for Cristiano Ronaldo this January.
Saudi clubs Al Hilal were said to be interested in a move for the 37-year-old this summer, but he turned it down.
His rivals, including Al Nassr, remain interested and there is a strong possibility of receiving an offer this winter.
Ronaldo has a contract this season and United have the option to extend it for another year.
Whether any of these clubs can attract the Portuguese with their immense spending power remains to be seen.
Ronaldo has not yet put his name on the minutes this season.
After joining late for pre-season, the 37-year-old has struggled to make Erik ten Hag’s starting squad so far.
The Dutchman’s system is based on frontal pressure and he has opted to sign players like Marcus Rashford and Anthony Elanga, who are comparatively quicker.
United, however, have mainly performed well against teams playing in a high lane.
This allows Ten Hag’s side to hit teams at halftime, which their players excel at.
Against teams that sit deep, Ronaldo could be a game changer.
His movement in and around the box and a killer instinct in front of goal could force Ten Hag to drop one of his current attackers for Ronaldo.
Ten Hag hopes to get the best out of the 37-year-old in what could be his last year at Old Trafford.
