The reason is that the senior officers of the Theater of Dreams are not anticipating any Champions League clubs, or other related teams, that would like to sign the Portuguese star mid-season.

The 37-year-old has so far been given limited playing time by Red Devils coach Erik ten Hag this season. Ronaldo has scored only one goal for Manchester United since the start of the season, from a penalty kick against Sharif in the Europa League.
