Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has claimed that Cristiano Ronaldo , who is reportedly on his way out of Manchester United , is not a good fit for the Blues. Ronaldo, who is in the final 12 months of his current deal at Old Trafford, has been the talk of the town this summer.
Earlier this month, he requested that Manchester United let him leave in the ongoing transfer window if a suitable offer comes in for him. The 37-year-old is seemingly interested in joining a club where he can pursue UEFA Champions League action.
Speaking on Genting Casino , Gallas opined about the developing transfer saga involving the five-time Ballon d'Or winner. He said:
"Cristiano Ronaldo is a world-class player and everybody knows that he wants to play Champions League football. I don't think he would suit Chelsea. Cristiano and Thomas Tuchel should have a good conversation because if Chelsea really want to sign him then they will have to speak about everything."
"Ronaldo is 37 now and even though people know he still has the quality because last season he was Manchester United's top goalscorer, fans were still complaining about him for some reason. I didn't understand why, because the problem was that the players around him didn't lift their level of performance."
"If he does sign for Chelsea, I'm sure the other players will learn a lot from him and I'm sure he'll score goals because the players around him will give him plenty of chances."
Ronaldo, who scored 24 goals across all competitions last season, is currently on leave from Manchester United's pre-season tour due to personal reasons.
