Ronaldo training with his former club Real Madrid

Ronaldo touchdown to his former Club to train as the Portugal star continues search for new club

WHAT TRANSPIRED?: The 37-year-future old’s has received a lot of attention when it was revealed that United and Ronaldo had mutually decided on his release before the start of the World Cup. But even as rumors surrounding Ronaldo’s next team swirl, with many speculating that it would be Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia, We confirm that Ronaldo will practice at Real Madrid’s Valdebebas facility until his future is settled.

After months of mounting tension, a tell-all interview with Piers Morgan in which Ronaldo harshly criticized Erik ten Hag and United was the tipping point. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was fined and benched from the first team as a result of his refusal to leave the bench during perhaps United’s most impressive victory of the season thus far against Tottenham.

THE BROAD VIEW: It wasn’t the first time Ronaldo had raised a fuss while working for Ten Hag. In a preseason match against Rayo Vallecano, the 37-year-old reportedly departed Old Trafford early once more before the bombshell interview and walkout against Tottenham. After Portugal was eliminated from the World Cup in the quarterfinals, many people think he will sign for Al-Nassr, but it appears that he will return to Madrid temporarily while his future is decided.

NEXT MOVE FOR RONALDO: The 37-year-future old’s move is most likely about to be decided, and a lucrative move to the Middle East appears to be a formality.
