One leverage Chelsea has that could lure Cristiano Ronaldo to Chelsea is Champions League football. Chelsea secured a place in the 2022/23 Champions League after finishing third last season while Man United finished 5th and only qualified for Europa League.
Although Cristiano Ronaldo loved Man United and may not want to hurt the fans’ feelings but football is unpredictable and Ronaldo could end up leaving Man United this summer.
What will Cristiano Ronaldo bring to Chelsea if he joins?
1. End Chelsea scoring crisis:
Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Romelu Lukaku could not solve Chelsea’s scoring issues last season. The trio cost Chelsea over £200m yet Chelsea struggles to score goals and relies on defenders to score in difficult Matches.
With Cristiano Ronaldo, Chelsea will have a proven and ruthless goal scorer who has scored over 800+ goals in his career.
Cristiano Ronaldo has succeeded in every team he has played and Chelsea won’t be an exception.
2. Merchandise sales = More money:
In today’s world, only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi can bring a huge amount of money on shirts, endorsements and merchandise sales to any team they join.
According to reliable publications, Cristiano Ronaldo’s shirt was the most selling jersey in the world last season. Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer to Chelsea will no doubts boost Chelsea’s merchandise sales volume which means more money for Chelsea.
3. More supporters = Increase in fanbase:
Last season, we all saw how Paris Saint-Germain’s fanbase skyrocketed after they announced Lionel Messi as their new signing. That’s evidence of what a mega star like Messi and Ronaldo can bring to a club.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer to Chelsea if materialized will boost Chelsea’s fanbase and make Chelsea the team to watch next season. More supporters, more ticket sales and TV revenues for Chelsea.
Conclusion:
The chances of Cristiano Ronaldo joining Chelsea is very slim as the Portuguese have a deep affiliation with Man United but in the world of football, nothing is impossible.
