Manchester City In Talks To Sign Cristiano Ronaldo

Manchester City are in talks to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus.

The Portugal captain, through his agent Jorge Mendes, has told Juventus he no longer wants to play for the club, according to Sky in Italy.

Ronaldo, who is in the final year of his contract in Turin, was not in City's plans this summer but he is an option they are considering after the Premier League champions missed out on signing England captain Harry Kane from Tottenham.

Major stumbling blocks to any potential deal are the £25m fee which Juventus are demanding for the 36-year-old forward and his £500,000 a week wages.
