Thomas Tuchel has broken his silence on Cristiano Ronaldo's Chelsea transfer links.
football.london understand that the Blues have sounded out a move for the striker, with Ronaldo keen to ply his trade in the Champions League this season. According to ESPN, the Portugal international is open to a move to Stamford Bridge, but Chelsea remain hesitant as to whether to escalate their interest, with Tuchel believed to have been granted the final say.
The Portuguese star has not been included in Erik ten Hag's squad which has travelled to Thailand for pre-season, with 'family reasons' cited as the reason for his absence. Ronaldo is yet to have reported back for pre-season training, despite being expected to return last Monday.
Chelsea have travelled to the United States for pre-season. As seen on Twitter, after being greeted by international fans, Tuchel was asked whether the club are going to sign Ronaldo. The German replied by smiling and saying: "I will not tell you."
Tuchel's response leaves a lot open to interpretation, but he hasn't exactly closed the door on a potential transfer for the 37-year-old superstar.
