Manchester United are believed to be eyeing up a shock move to bring him back to Old Trafford – 12 years after he left to join Real Madrid.

But they are understood to face competition from French giants Paris Saint-Germain who are keen for him to play alongside Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.

Ronaldo, who is currently on holiday with his family in Majorca following Portugal’s Euro 2020 exit, is due back at Juve on July 14 for pre-season training.

And according to Tuttosport, Ronaldo’s agent Mendes will soon be arriving in Milan where he will meet with Juve’s football director Federico Cherubini.

They state that they plan to clarify what Ronaldo’s future is with the Old Lady amid rumours he could pen a new deal at the Allianz Stadium.

It has been speculated that Mendes has asked Juventus to extend the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s contract until 2023.

Renewal talks between the player and Juventus are not believed to have started yet.

Ronaldo, who recently topped the 2021 Instagram rich list, has starred since arriving in Italy from Los Blancos in 2018.

In just 133 games for the club he has banged in a whopping 101 goals -becoming the fastest player to reach a century of strikes for Juve.

His 29 Serie A goals in the 2020-21 campaign saw him win the golden boot ahead of Romelu Lukaku.

And he added the Coppa Italia title to his trophy cabinet as Juventus beat Atalanta 2-1 in the final.
