Transfer: Cristiano Ronaldo Exit Could Give Man United Up to £100m for January Signings

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag will be handed up to £100 million for transfers if Cristiano Ronaldo leaves in the January transfer window, according to the Sun.

United spent £225m (€261m) on new signings this summer, most notably on the transfers of Antony and Lisandro Martinez from Ajax, as well as Casemiro from Real Madrid.

Ten Hag will reportedly receive £70m for January transfers, but this could increase to £100m if Ronaldo leaves.

Ronaldo, 37, still wants to leave Old Trafford and had been linked with numerous sides during the summer. With the Portugal international earning £450,000 a week, his exit would afford the Red Devils an extra £30m to invest in the side.

Ronaldo scored his first goal of the season (the 699th of his club career) on Thursday in United’s 2-0 win against Sheriff Tiraspol in Europa League group stage action.

Ten Hag could reignite his interest in Frenkie de Jong after a deal collapsed with Barcelona this summer. The 25-year-old Netherlands midfielder’s future remains uncertain at Camp Nou, as he has started only two games under Xavi Hernandez in LaLiga this season.

Ten Hag is looking for at least three more players to build a squad able to compete with Liverpool and Manchester City in the Premier League.
