‘You never know what is going to happen’ – Cristiano Ronaldo opens door to shock Man City transfer with cryptic reply
CRISTIANO RONALDO has sensationally teased a stunning move to Manchester City.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was on the verge of joining the Premier League champions before he sealed an emotional return to Manchester United in the summer of 2021.
And the Al-Nassr hitman has appeared to once again open the door to a shock Etihad switch.
During an appearance at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai, the 39-year-old revealed he’s open to giving the struggling Citizens a “helping hand”.
The Portugal star said: “You never know what is going to happen.”
Ronaldo was then asked to elaborate after the presenter responded to his bombshell by saying: “That’s not a no!”
But the Real Madrid man refused, briefly laughing before going silent.
City’s hopes of winning an unprecedented FIFTH-STRAIGHT Prem title are well and truly up in smoke.
Pep Guardiola‘s troops have lost NINE of their last 13 matches in all competitions and are a whopping 14 points behind league leaders Liverpool.
City are currently SEVENTH in the table, six points behind fourth-placed Nottingham Forest.
