ESPN：曼联从未将C罗“扣下”，现在就算白送他可能都没人要

根据ESPN曼彻斯特方面记者Mark Odgen（被曼联球迷多次吐槽的Mo）的最新报道，正如ESPN上个月报道的那样，自从C罗明确表示他想在夏天离开曼联以来，曼联已经准备好让C罗自由转会离开老特拉福德。

一位曼联消息人士告诉ESPN：“有一种观点认为我们把他扣为人质，告诉他必须留下，但事实远非如此。”（A United source has since told ESPN: "There is a view that we have kept him hostage, told him he has to stay, but nothing could be further from the truth."）

早在夏天，其他俱乐部对这位周薪50万英镑的大牌球员没有兴趣，而他的38岁生日将在2月份到来，现在情况仍然如此。

基本上，曼联甚至不能把C罗免费白白送人。这很大程度上是因为俱乐部对签下一名国际地位如此之高的球员持谨慎态度，因为这让他觉得自己可以随心所欲，没有人愿意签下一个会在队内引起骚动的球员。（Back in the summer, there was no interest from other clubs in a player earning 500,000 a week and with his 38th birthday approaching in February. The same remains the case now. Basically, United can't even give Ronaldo away. Much of that is down to clubs being wary of signing a player whose global status is so great that it gives him a sense of being able to do what he wants. Nobody wants to sign a player who will cause unrest within the squad.）
