Manchester United
Cristiano Ronaldo is a person who is always up for a challenge. He prefers to play in situations that allow him to display his charisma. Considering this, Manchester United could be an ideal destination for Ronaldo if he leaves Juventus.

PSG
A few years back, PSG have created a stir by signing two superstar footballers Neymar and KylianMbappé. If possible, the Qatari owner Nasser Al Khelaifi would bring Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to Paris Saint-Germain. Although the PSG owner has no shortage of money, it will not be possible to include so many star footballers in one team due to the financial fair play.
In that case, PSG will want to keep the best two footballers in the team by spending more money. They will try to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to the team if Neymar leaves the team for Barcelona next season. Ronaldo would welcome the opportunity to play in Paris for a while.
