Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly tells close friends that he is 'feeling his age for the first time' in his professional career.

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly told close friends that he is 'feeling his age for the first time' in his professional career, which could lead to him leaving Manchester United this summer.

The 37-year-old is currently on the longest goalscoring drought in his career for 13 years, having failed to find the back of the net in his last five appearances for the Red Devils.

Ronaldo was dropped to the bench for Tuesday's clash with Burnley but has been brought back into the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Southampton.

According to The Sun, the former Sporting Lisbon youngster is considering leaving Man United this summer, a year before the end of his contract at the club.

The report claims that the Portugal international has admitted to close friends that he is starting to 'feel his age' due to the demands of English football.

However, it is alleged that Ronaldo will not make any decision on his future until the end of the campaign, with Man United still fighting on two fronts in the Premier League and Champions League.

The forward has scored 14 times and registered three assists in 25 appearances for the 20-time English champions during the 2021-22 campaign.
