Why Real Madrid rejected offer to sign Cristiano Ronaldo

Why Real Madrid rejected Ronaldo multiple times despite United’s offer to pay bulk of his salary

Cristiano Ronaldo is now officially an Al Nassr player

Ronaldo completed the move to Saudi Arabia after falling on ill terms at the end of a 18 month second stint with Manchester United

However, during the time that he was a free agent, reports from Spain suggest that Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes had reached out to Real Madrid multiple times with the proposition to buy the forward

The Champions League and La Liga defending champions however, refused the same despite an offer made by Manchester United to pay for bulk of his salary

Other leading clubs rejected invitations to sign Ronaldo even when they were told United might be willing to cover the majority of his salary for this season”
