At the Globe Soccer Awards, Cristiano Ronaldo (on the left) was pictured with his old agent Jorge Mendes.
According to reports, international football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo handed his former agent, Jorge Mendes, the choice of bringing him to Chelsea or Bayern Munich.
The alarming allegation from El Mundo states that the Portuguese international made the demand last summer.
Ronaldo allegedly told Mendes, "Either you bring me Chelsea or Bayern, or we break up."
Ronaldo and United mutually decided to cancel his contract two days before Portugal's FIFA World Cup 2022 campaign began after the star gave an angry interview to Piers Morgan on Talk TV during which he criticised the squad and Ten Hag.
For trying to eject him, Ronaldo said he felt "betrayed" by club members, and Ten Hag allegedly treated him disrespectfully.
In answer to Ronaldo's request, Mendes—who won Best Agent of the Year at the Globe Soccer Awards ten times between 2010 and 2020—did contact Bayern and Chelsea to see if they were interested in signing his client.
The two leading teams, though, declined the offer, which led to a falling out between Ronaldo and his agent.
It wasn't always this way, though, between the two. They were quite close. Since Ronaldo was a teenager, Mendes has overseen his professional development. Mendes is in reality one of Ronaldo's children's godparents, according to Ronaldo.
When things reportedly came to an end, Mendes decided he was done putting up with Ronaldo's demands.
"I can never express my gratitude to Jorge for everything he has done for my family. He began as a friend but evolved into something more, joining my family "Dolores dos Santos Aveiro, Ronaldo's mother, once stated.
In the meanwhile, Cristiano agreed to a contract with Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia, thought to be valued more than 200 million euros.
The 37-year-old signed a deal that would keep him working until June 2025.
He led the Riyadh All-Stars, which comprised players from Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal, against Lionel Messi's Paris Saint-Germain to make his Saudi Arabian league debut.
Despite the former Real Madrid player's two goals, the Saudi Arabian team fell short by a score of 4-5.
