Ronaldo to China? Real Madrid star intrigued by move, says Scolari

Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has asked about the Chinese Super League amid talk of a lucrative move, claims Luiz Felipe Scolari.

The Portuguese is enjoying a rich vein of form in the Spanish capital, with his inspirational best recaptured following a slow start to the 2017-18 campaign.

It was during that early-season wobble that talk of a possible switch elsewhere intensified for a man who is now 33 years of age.

He has curbed those rumours with his recent displays, as he chases down a sixth Ballon d’Or and more major honours, but Scolari says Ronaldo is intrigued by opportunities in Asia.
