NAPOLI are reportedly in talks with agent Jorge Mendes to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Italian side were linked with a move for the 37-year-old earlier this summer.
But a bid was never made and Ronaldo was forced to look elsewhere to fulfil his goal of playing Champions League football.
However, Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes has reignited a deal and is in talks with Napoli over a transfer, report Tuttosport.
Those talks are also reported by transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio, who adds Mendes is also looking for a club to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen in order to facilitate the move for CR7.
United is reportedly a possibility for the Nigerian, who could command a transfer fee of £86million.
