The Lowdown: Ronaldo to leave?

da dobrowin： Erik ten Hag has a tough job on his hands at Old Trafford, and that could be made even harder if the club were to lose star man Cristiano Ronaldo.

The striker is also into his last 12 months of his Lyon contract, which could mean that he may be available for a fee in or around his £18m Transfermarkt valuation, making a potential move certainly worth a punt.
