Tottenham could have signed striker Cristiano Ronaldo before the start of the 2022/23 season in the EPL, the Daily Mail reports.
According to their sources, Ronaldo asked Manchester United executives to sell him in the summer of 2022, and the Spurs were among the contenders for the Portuguese.
However, head coach Antonio Conte and president Daniel Levy decided that such a signing would not benefit the team.
As the season progressed, the sides terminated the agreement by mutual consent. Ronaldo then went to the World Cup in Qatar, where he was forced to sit out during the tournament. On December 30, he moved to Al Nassr.
His contract with the club is valid until the summer of 2025. The 38-year-old has ten matches in all competitions this season, scoring nine goals and giving two assists. Transfermarkt estimated the market value of Ronaldo at €20 million.
