20-goals a season player opens up to Chelsea move as Tuchel blocked transfer despite Boehly agreed deal
According to latest reports, Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel blocked new owner Todd Boehly from signing unhappy Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo, it has been claimed.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo was set for a move to Chelsea this summer only for Tuchel to block the transfer.
This is according to Spanish journalist Manu Sainz, of AS, who states the Portuguese legend had agreed in principle to join the Londoners.
The proposal came after new Blues owner Boehly was spotted meeting with agent Jorge Mendes last month.
However, Tuchel soon expressed his concerns with the prospective deal and the club instead turned to Raheem Sterling, who eventually arrived from Manchester City.
Ronaldo is desperate to leave Manchester United in order to continue playing in the Champions League, but is yet to receive any concrete offers.
