According to several outlets, the soccer star told his club that he wanted to leave after just one season, which would end his second stint with the club.
The Times reported that the player asked Manchester United to agree to a transfer if they received a good offer.
According to The Athletic, Manchester United doesn't plan to give up their star player, and sources say he's not available for a transfer.
According to Forbes, Manchester United is the third-most valuable soccer club in the world and the most valuable Premier League franchise, with a value of $4.7 billion.
It marks the latest step in an unhappy reconciliation with the club he spent much of his earlier career with. Manchester United failed to qualify for the playoffs in last season's premier league. The Athletic reports that the club's disappointing season was the reason whyRonaldo wanted to leave. One of the greatest players of all-time is a five-time Ballon d'Or winner. The first soccer player to reach $1 billion in career earnings wasRonaldo.
If he leaves Manchester United, where would he end up? The Athletic reported last week that Todd Boehly, the new principal owner of the English club, met with the agent of the Portuguese star to discuss a possible transfer.
If the right offer comes in, he wants to leave.
