GRAHAM POTTER has followed in the footsteps of his predecessor Thomas Tuchel regarding a possible Cristiano Ronaldo transfer, according to reports.
That is despite Todd Boehly’s dream to sign the Portuguese superstar.
Cristiano Ronaldo is unlikely to sign for Chelsea next year
Todd Boehly, right, would be keen to land Ronaldo but manager Graham Potter is not
As revealed by SunSport in July, new Chelsea owner Boehly wants to land Ronaldo as a marquee transfer and has links to his agent Jorge Mendes.
However, former Blues boss Tuchel was unconvinced by the prospect of bringing in the 37-year-old to his squad.
And now according to the Daily Mail, his replacement Potter is said to be ‘equally unenthused’ about having Ronaldo in his squad.
Potter arrived at Stamford Bridge from Brighton in September following Tuchel’s shock sacking.
Despite going unbeaten in his first nine matches as Chelsea boss, Potter lost four of his last five including three in a row in the Premier League before the break for the World Cup.
Boehly splashed out a whopping £259million in his first transfer window at the helm.
But Potter may want to bring in some of his own signings in the New Year.
However, Ronaldo is not set to be one of them.

The Manchester United forward is likely to be available following his explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
Ronaldo – whose Old Trafford contract expires in the summer – hit out at Erik ten Hag, the Glazers and the board among others in the blistering revelations which many expect has signalled the end of his time with the Red Devils.
As revealed by SunSport, though, David Beckham is in talks with the five-time Ballon d’Or over a move to Inter Miami.
