Despite popular belief, his 2014 Ballon d’Or triumpy, and an inevitable Pichichi win are not enough to compensate Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid’s trophy-less season.
The Portuguese ace, having lifted the Champions League and Copa del Rey last term, followed by their success at the European Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup, will wrap up this campaign without a single medal to his name.
Los Blancos lost the Liga BBVA crown to rivals Barcelona, who officially won La Liga on Sunday, and were also dumped out of the Champions League by Juventus in the semi-final.
Six years since arriving at Santiago Bernabeu, the three-time Ballon d’Or winner has won the Spanish Primera Division only once, a feat Barcelona’s Thomas Vermaelen matched having played 0 games this season.

According to the latest reports, as a result of Real Madrid’s struggles to win silverware, the 30-year-old is “restless” and could push for a move away from Les Merengues.
As stated by Spanish publication Marca (per the Daily Mirror), Ronaldo is being eyed by Ligue 1 champions and European mega-rich side Paris Saint-Germain, as they continue in their search of football dominance.

Of course, every time Cristiano exits rumors surface, he is linked with a return to Manchester United, a club which he played with for six seasons, scoring 117 goals in 290 appearances.
The player has openly spoken about his affection for the club, and with the Red Devils keen on challenging for the English Premier League next campaign, Louis Van Gaal is expected to return to the transfer market and spend big.
And given this recent report, that man could be Ronaldo.
