"Lewa may quit Bayern," the 75-year-old Italian added. I understand there are reports, and I would like to see him succeed anywhere, but in the Premier League, there is a squad that lacks a real center-forward, and Manchester United is now using Cristiano Ronaldo in that place."
Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Manchester United in the summer and has netted 13 goals in 19 games for the Red Devils.
The Five-time ballon D'Or winner Portuguese Star has been chosen striking position under both previous Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and temporary manager Ralf Rangnick.
