#1 The Financial strength of the Red Devils
According to KPMG, Premier giants, Manchester United are currently the richest of all football clubs in the world. The Red Devils are valued at €3.255 billion, beating the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid who have €2.78 billion and €2.92 billion respectively.
Cristiano Ronaldo would have benefited hugely from joining Manchester United instead of Juventus. With his €30 million a year deal at the Allianz Stadium, the attacker still lags behind the likes of Lionel Messi and Neymar Junior who have €40 million and €36.8 million contracts respectively. Had he joined the Red Devils, he could have easily become the highest-paid footballer in the world.
Moreover, Real Madrid would have also benefited from the deal because the Premier League giants would have offered more than the €88 million that the Old Ladies paid to secure his services.
