Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho has disclosed that the Red Devils will never turn down the chance to sign Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo.
United signed Ronaldo from Sporting Lisbon in 2003 and the Portuguese captain quickly established himself as one of the most talented players in the world.
Mourinho, however, said he doubts a move would ever happen as it is almost ‘prohibited’ for the Los Blancos to sell the 33-year-old.
“I believe that Real Madrid cannot sell him, it is prohibited,” Mourinho told Portuguese newspaper Record.
“He has to stay until the moment they authorise him to go and play one year in America or anywhere else that he wants to enjoy. It is a closed door.”
Asked about Manchester United’s interest in Ronaldo, Mourinho added: “I don’t think so.
“But all the people know his history in Manchester, the passion they have for him and that there are players in the world who, if the clubs have the possibility of signing, will not say no.”
