The Portuguese superstar, who left Old Trafford in 2009 for a then-world record fee to join Real Madrid, has signed a two-year contract with the Premier League giants. Manchester United announced the news via their official website on Friday, confirming that a deal had been agreed with Juventus, Ronaldo’s former club. The transfer fee is believed to be in the region of £20 million. Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United has been met with wild enthusiasm by both fans and pundits alike. The 36-year-old forward is considered one of the greatest players of all time, having won five Ballon d’Or awards and numerous major trophies throughout his illustrious career. Speaking to the club’s website, Ronaldo expressed his delight at returning to Old Trafford. “I’m so happy to be back at Manchester United,” he said. “This club is part of my heart and I couldn’t be happier to be here again. I’ve had some amazing moments here and I’m looking forward to creating more memories with the team.” Ronaldo’s arrival is expected to bolster Manchester United’s hopes of challenging for the Premier League title this season. The Red Devils finished second behind Manchester City last season, but they will be hoping to regain the trophy they last won in 2013 under David Moyes. United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer described Ronaldo’s return as a “dream come true.” “Cristiano is a legend of this club and it’s an incredible feeling to have him back,” said Solskjaer. “He’s a true winner and I’m sure he will make a huge contribution to the team.” Ronaldo is expected to make his second debut for Manchester United on September 11th, when they host Newcastle United at Old Trafford.
