Why Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester City makes sense for all parties: Juventus are cash-strapped and need money to bring in transfer targets and renew Paulo Dybala's contract... while Pep Guardiola wants a new No 9 and time is running out to get Harry Kan

Having a player like Cristiano Ronaldo comes at a cost - a very large cost. For Juventus, letting one of the best players in the world go may not be such a bad call.

According to a sensational report by Corriere dello Sport, Ronaldo's agent - Jorge Mendes - has offered the Portuguese forward to Manchester City as an alternative option to Harry Kane, with the 36-year-old reportedly available for just £25million.

The news comes at a time when Juventus are struggling with their finances. The Old Lady announced losses of £275million earlier this summer due to the coronavirus pandemic - and the club are yet to bring in a single new face in the transfer market with the Serie A season just days away.
