Manchester City may have failed to sign Harry Kane, but they are now best placed to sign Cristiano Ronaldo, with the Portuguese forward having decided to leave Juventus.
Even though Pavel Nedved and Massimiliano Allegri had tried to maintain calm by insisting the No.7 would stay, the mood has changed in the last few days.
This Thursday night, Fabrizio Romano announced that Ronaldo has informed Juventus of his desire to leave the club.
Juventus are now waiting on an offer that satisfies them, with the Sky Italia journalist reporting that the club want to receive a figure near 30 million euros.
Jorge Mendes has been working for the past 24 hours to close a deal with Manchester City, with Pep Guardiola determined to add a centre-forward.
