Premier League - Paper Round: Jose Mourinho Wants Cristiano Ronaldo At Chelsea
http://www.africaeagle.com/2013/05/premier-league-paper-round-jose.html
Rumours have been swirling around that Cristiano Ronaldo could return to Manchester United this summer but now it appears Chelsea are looking to get into the mix.
According to the Daily Mail, Jose Mourinho has already handed Roman Abramovich a shopping list for when he takes over at the club and Ronaldo is the top name on it.
This is all despite the fact that Ronaldo's relationship with Mourinho seems to have become a bit strained this season at Real Madrid.
Ronaldo appeared to fire an obscenity in the direction of Mourinho after scoring his 200th goal for Real last week but the Special One is still keen to have his fellow Portuguese join him on the plane from Madrid to London.
However, even the Mail's article notes that "United have first option to sign Ronaldo if Real decide to sell and the Portugal star favours a return to Old Trafford."
It would appear though that Ronaldo is just one of three big name forward targets for Mourinho.
"Mourinho, who has worked with Ronaldo for the past three years, has added him to his list of premium targets," says the Mail.
"Wayne Rooney, who would prefer to move to Chelsea, and Napoli striker Edinson Cavani are also wanted by Mourinho."
Interestingly both Mourinho and Ronaldo were both sent-off in Friday night's Cope del Rey final which Real lost 2-1 to city rivals Atletico in a big upset.
