Having experienced a drought of success in previous years, Manchester United signed Cristiano Ronaldo to help them strive for championships in the future. The Red Devils are currently out of all tournaments and face a difficult task to even finish in the top four this season.
CMIT TV (via TEAMtalk) reported that journalist Stefano Benzi stated that discussions between Ronaldo and Inter Miami are started, and that Manchester United will not put a stumbling block in front of the Portuguese superstar.
"Through my connection with Americans, I learnt that a successor for Gonzalo Higuain has already been identified, and it is believed to be none other than Cristiano Ronaldo." - A significant potential exists for David Beckham to travel to Miami with Manchester United due to his preferential access to the club's hierarchy. "The Americans in charge of the Red Devils would be delighted to get rid of Ronaldo's salary," Benzi stated.
A recent study from Spotrac claims that Cristiano Ronaldo earns more than £26.5 million per year at Manchester United, more than any other player in the Premier League.
It is possible that United will be able to recruit many targets if Ronaldo is released from his contract. The 37-year-old earns more than £500,000 a week, which could easily pay the wages of three high-profile players.
The possibility exists that United may replace Ronaldo with a decent striker while still having enough money left over in the salary budget to make adjustments in other poor areas of the squad, which could prove to be far more cost effective than spending the entire budget on a single player.
