Back to their ex-clubs? Massive swap could twist the fabric of European football

Football transfers became as interesting as the game itself. Transfer windows can be as exciting and as irritating as any tournament. After all, transfer market is a competition.

With Euro 2020 already on the way, two of the biggest names of the tournament are also often mentioned names on the currently opened market.

Reportedly, Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo could move back to his old club Manchester United in a 24 million USD (2.5 billion KSH)-a-year deal. To top it all off, French creative midfielder Paul Pogba could head the other way to Juventus if the two sides reach an agreement.

With reports across Europe claiming that Ronaldo is looking for a move out of Juventus after a tough season at Allianz Stadium, Portugal's talisman is likely to be one of the biggest sagas of the transfer window.

And in that saga, alongside Juve and Man United, another huge club emerged to play the supporting role.

Gazzetta dello Sport report that PSG are Ronaldo's preferred option, however the French giants haven't offered a deal yet. That is why it is predicted that the Red Devils will swoop their former player.

United are willing to pay Ronaldo 17 million GBP-a-year to bring him back to Old Trafford, report from the Italians state, and with Pogba's situation at the club unclear, the Frenchman could go back to Turin as part of the trade.

Ronaldo currently earns close to 38 million USD (4 billion KSH) from Juve and the 36-year-old is confident he can negotiate a new deal close to those earnings on a yearly basis.

Sporting Lisbon and Real Madrid were also mentioned as potential destinations for one of best footballers in the history of sport.

But pretty much all of these teams are affected by finance and their finances are driven by two things - corona pandemic and their main targets during this transfer window.

Man United have their eyes set on Dortmund's Jadon Sancho, Juve's new coach Max Allegri wants Gabriel Jesus from Man City, PSG are in a limbo due to Kylian Mbappe's uncertain future.

Meanwhile, according to Gazzetta, Ronaldo is happy to leave should an offer arrive that would be satisfying to him.
