Spanish giants Real Madrid are plotting an ambitious move for Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo, in a bid to take him back to the Bernabeu.
That is according to a report by Football Insider who claim that the Spanish heavyweights believe the arrival of Ralf Rangnick at Old Trafford could spell the end of Ronaldo's time at United.
Ronaldo only returned to Old Trafford at the very end of the summer transfer window and, despite the Reds' recent struggles, has excelled, scoring 13 goals, including six in the UEFA Champions League.
Some pundits have suggested that Ronaldo's return to Old Trafford has been the route of United's problems this season, but his statistics and performances suggest otherwise.
However, some pundits now fear that Rangnick's arrival at Old Trafford, and his desire to play with a high press, could spell trouble for Ronaldo, with it claimed that the 36-year-old will not be able to meet the demands required to fit his system.
And it is reported as though Madrid have that same thought process, with it claimed that they believe they have a chance of spectacularly re-signing the Portuguese international in January.
In truth, it is hard to see Ronaldo, who put pen to paper on a two-year deal at Old Trafford in August, being allowed to leave the club, especially when you take into account that he is the Reds' top-scorer this term.
Meanwhile, United youngster Amad is poised to leave the club on loan during next month's transfer window, a report by Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, as cited by the Mail, claims.
The former Atalanta man, who started United's 1-1 draw with Young Boys in the Champions League on Wednesday evening, has been closely linked with an array of big-name European clubs in recent weeks, as he looks to step-up his prospects of securing more regular first-team football.
The Ivory Coast international was close to leaving United at the end of the summer transfer window, but his temporary switch to Feyenoord collapsed as a result of him picking up an injury.
Nevertheless, the youngster has continued to attract plenty of interest and is said to be 'excited' about the prospect of heading out on loan.
Feyenoord have retained their interest in his services and are keen to take him to the Netherlands on a temporary basis.
