Cristiano Ronaldo was the leading architect in his proposed move away from Manchester United with the Portuguese attacker aiming to play Champions League football this season a tournament the Old Trafford giant cannot offer him.
Despite Ronaldo’s push for an exit, the Red Devil’s management was reluctant to let him leave and few clubs that showed interest in his services could not meet the demands as per wage hence the deal was not facilitated.
Manchester United fans were delighted to have him back and many took on social media to welcome the five time-Ballon d’Or to Old Trafford, though his future at the club is still unclear at the moment.
