Cristiano Ronaldo's time to return to his boyhood club in Portugal might have finally arrived. Transfer Talk has the latest.

Speaking of the 27-year-old [Slovakia](/soccer/team?id=468) international, CEO Giuseppe Marotta, as quoted by [Fabrizio Romano](http://https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1563228822329520129?s=20&t=FLoVDtxx1nuaY--bgnOAmA), said: "He will stay with us for sure, the owners have decided not to be tempted by [Paris Saint-Germain](/soccer/team?id=160) bids and approaches, he is a key player for us and he will stay." [Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/122260/Pierre-Emerick-Aubameyang), reports [Gianluca Di Marzio](https://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/aubameyang-chelsea-man-united-barcelona-transfermarket). [Marcelo](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/269546/Marcelo) has been out of contract since his deal expired with Real Madrid this summer, but he has now received an official offer from [Bayer Leverkusen](/soccer/team?id=131), writes [Foot Mercato](https://www.footmercato.net/a8017030204001774353-le-bayer-leverkusen-approche-marcelo). The 34-year-old left-back is yet to decide on his next destination, though he is understood to also be on the radar of Ligue 1's [Nice](/soccer/team?id=2502) and Serie A side [Monza](/soccer/team?id=4007). The Seagulls are understood to be keen on the 17-year-old Rosario Central attacking midfielder, but the Argentine side would like to see the offer improved if they are to part ways with him. [Marca](https://www.marca.com/futbol/atletico/2022/08/27/6309fce0268e3e2e3b8b4598.html) details how Lodi will join Forest for a reported fee of €40 million, which will allow the [Brazil](/soccer/team?id=205) defender to improve his chances at a World Cup squad spot. The report notes that the ex- [Manchester United](/soccer/team?id=360) frontman could have options back in the Premier League Griezmann returned to Atletico last year on a two-year loan deal, with a clause stating that they would be obliged to pay Barca €40m if the France international played at least 45 minutes in 50% of the games for which he is available over the two seasons. Zakharyan, 19, reportedly has a release clause of £12.6m which the Blues are ready to trigger.

As Manchester United you always have to try do better so we can see if we can strengthen the squad, if not we will do with what we have got."
