MANCHESTER UNITED will have to battle Paris Saint-Germain to recapture Cristiano Ronaldo according to ‘The Sun’.

Paris Saint Germain have contacted Real Madrid to negotiate a potential move for 80 Millions pounds for Cristiano Ronaldo

The French Ligue 1 club soon to be crowned champion have contacted Real Madrid to negotiate a potential move to the French capital and snatch the 28-year-old Portuguese star.

Manchester United — who sold Ronaldo to Real madrid for the same price of £80million in 2009 — are willing to offer £65m plus a player — most likely Nani — if they get the approval from Ronaldo’s agents.

A United source said: “United are not happy now PSG have made their move with a substantial offer.

“They will not give up, however, and have told Ronaldo’s agent of their intent.”

The Qatari backed consortium from France are understood to have offered Real £80m.

Ronaldo has refused to sign a new contract at the Bernabeu. He has two years left on his current deal and said he would be willing to let it run and leave Real as a free agent.

That is why the club want to sell him before they see him leave for nothing.

My opinion is that he should not go to PSG, because the level of the Ligue 1 is too low. Cristiano Ronaldo needs more than competing in the Champion’s League, he also needs to play every week in a league that plays high-level football like the Premier League for instance.
