Ronaldo Returns to Old Trafford as United Face Arsenal in Blockbuster ClashRonaldo Returns to Old Trafford as United Face Arsenal in Blockbuster Clash Old Trafford is set to ignite with excitement on Saturday afternoon as Manchester United welcome Arsenal in a highly anticipated Premier League blockbuster. The fixture marks the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to his former stomping ground, adding an extra layer of intrigue to an already captivating clash. Ronaldo, who left United for Real Madrid in 2009, returned to the club in a sensational move last summer. The Portuguese superstar has since scored 14 goals in all competitions, including the winner in last weekend’s victory over Tottenham Hotspur. His return to Old Trafford will be an emotional occasion for both the player and the fans. Ronaldo spent six years at United, winning three Premier League titles, two League Cups, the FA Cup, and the Champions League. He is regarded as one of the club’s greatest ever players. However, Ronaldo’s return will not be a nostalgic affair for Arsenal. The Gunners have been in excellent form under Mikel Arteta, winning nine of their last 11 Premier League games. They sit fourth in the table, just one point behind United in fifth. Arsenal will be looking to continue their impressive run and close the gap on their rivals. They will also be motivated by the memories of last season’s clash at Old Trafford, which they won 1-0 thanks to Emile Smith Rowe’s goal. United, meanwhile, will be determined to maintain their unbeaten record at home this season. They have won five of their six league games at Old Trafford, including impressive victories over Liverpool and Tottenham. The match is expected to be a tight and tense affair between two of the Premier League’s most historic clubs. Ronaldo’s presence will only add to the occasion, making it a blockbuster clash that promises plenty of excitement and drama. Kick-off at Old Trafford is at 12:30pm GMT on Saturday, September 4th, 2021.
