According to Portuguese football expert Pedro Sepulveda, Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo's private jet left Lisbon, Portugal on Wednesday for Madrid, Spain.
According to Sepulveda, Cristiano Ronaldo's private jet arrived in Lisbon on Wednesday afternoon before departing for Madrid a few minutes later.
However, Sepulveda was unable to confirm whether the Manchester United star was on the private jet that left Lisbon for Madrid on Wednesday afternoon.
Meanwhile, according to Samuel Luckhurst, Ronaldo is "upset" that he will have to take a pay cut at Manchester United next season.
Ronaldo, who returned to Manchester United on a contract worth around £500,000 per week last summer, will now earn around £360,000 per week next season.
Ronaldo has been impacted by the club's failure to qualify for the Champions League last season, which resulted in a 25% pay cut in his contract.
Ronaldo isn't the only one affected; several other members of the first-team squad have seen their pay cut as a result of the club's failures.
The reduction in his wages for next season is said to have irritated Ronaldo, and this could be another reason why the 37-year-old forward wishes to leave Manchester United this summer.
Barcelona president Joan Laporta has refused to comment on reports that the La Liga club is in talks to sign Cristiano Ronaldo out of'respect' for Manchester United.
Earlier this week, reports in Spain claimed Ronaldo's agent, Jorge Mendes, had met with Laporta to discuss a move for the 37-year-old.
Last weekend, Ronaldo informed United of his desire to leave Old Trafford, which surprised the board and Erik ten Hag, who had counted on keeping the Portugal forward.
Despite the fact that Laporta did not deny the reports, he refused to entertain the possibility that the former Real Madrid star would end up at the Camp Nou.
Ronaldo? 'I'm not going to talk about players in any way,' said Laporta.
'It adds nothing to Barcelona's interests, and they all deserve respect.'
Ronaldo wishes to leave Manchester United following the club's failure to qualify for the Champions League.
In addition, the veteran has been forced to take a 25% pay cut due to a clause in his contract that stated that if he did not finish in the top four, he would lose a quarter of his salary.
Chelsea are the frontrunners for Ronaldo, but United will not sell the forward to a Premier League rival.
