A replacement for the injured Mané? Bayern probing the situation around Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo is at war with Manchester United and is looking for a new team. He could head to Bayern Munich, who considered him in the summer. According to the Daily Mail, the club has even started talks with the star footballer.

The Bavarian giant’s offensive star Sadio Mané is currently struggling with health problems. He injured his knee in a recent match in which Bayern defeated Werder Bremen 6-1 at home, but he still appeared in Senegal’s nomination for the World Cup in Qatar.

Munich are now waiting to see how the situation develops and are a little worried that the Senegalese national team will rush the return of their ailing mainstay. In any case, Bayern will not be idle and are looking around for a possible replacement to take Manny’s place during his health problems.

This is supposed to be an opportunity for Ronaldo, who Bavaria have started to think hard about again. We are writing again because they had the Portuguese legend on their list of possible reinforcements back in the summer, but in the end they decided not to take that step. Now, in the middle of the season, the situation is a bit different.

The fact is that Bayern could use one more quality striker. Before his move to Germany, Mané played more on the wing at Liverpool, and at Bayern he was supposed to replace the pure spike player Robert Lewandowski, who moved to Barcelona. However, Polák’s goals may be missed, although the goalscoring productivity is currently spread among several players.

Ronaldo can help with goals and marketing, but he can also poison the air in the cabin

Ronaldo has messed things up at Old Trafford with the board and manager Erik ten Hag, making virtually no starts in the Premier League and picking up starts mainly in the Europa League. At Bayern, he could play his beloved Champions League again and take his record a step further, lest he be beaten by eternal rival Lionel Messi of PSG.

But signing Ronaldo could also be risky for Bayern. Although the Portuguese is still capable of scoring goals and dishing out assists at the age of 37, his contribution to the team is not so much.

His self-centeredness could be a risk, and as Ronaldo has now shown, his behaviour can also split the atmosphere in the locker room and off the pitch. What is certain is that CR7 must look for a new club, there is no room for him in Manchester anymore.

There is often talk of his departure to the American MLS, but the Ronaldo brand is still so strong and flashy that it continues to attract wealthy suitors from Europe. In addition to Bayern, there is also talk of Chelsea or Newcastle United, so in theory the Madeira native might not even have to leave the prestigious Premier League.
