From what I can tell Ronaldo wanted to leave Juve and was having his agent speak to both Manchester clubs. No official bid was made until late today when Man City had already stepped aside.

Considering reaction of Man United fans to rumours of Ronaldo going to Man City and it eventually not happening I can see why the agreed story has become no serious talks were held with Man City but we don't know for sure.

Regarding Ole, not going to say he was a bad manager when he was here but he was a bad manager for us. Not sure how much he's improved since (only Luke Shaw is definitely a better player under him and only that PSG tie won on a Rashford penalty as unexpectedly good result) but he is trusted by high profile players - and now the pressure very much on to win finally win a major trophy.

No one yet has mentioned that Man City might have changed their mind about signing Ronaldo when the Mendy story broke and not wanting to double down on controversial headlines on the same subject.
