Incoming Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho wants to sign Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo is at the centre of a bidding war after it emerged the Manchester United target is wanted by Chelsea, the Daily Mail reported.
The £80million Real Madrid forward, who was sent off last night in a dramatic Copa del Rey final loss to bitter local rivals Atletico, is on a summer shopping list put together by Chelsea’s incoming manager Jose Mourinho.
The Special One was also sent to the stands after arguing with the referee during a bad-tempered match that could turn out to be the last at the Bernabeu for both of them.
United have first option to sign Ronaldo if Real decide to sell and the Portugal star favours a return to Old Trafford.
But Mourinho, who has worked with him for the past three years, has added him to his list of premium targets.
