And is officially one of the great movements of the summer in world football. Cristiano Ronaldo has returned to Manchester United – the club in which he played between 2003 and 2009.
His £19.7m deal at Manchester United runs until 2023 and he will receive a salary close to 28 million per year.
After an intense 72 hours in which the Portuguese player communicated to the club his intention to change of scene, the 36-year-old forward has opted for the team that saw him grow and where he established himself as a world star.
A call he received from Sir Alex Ferguson today changed the mind Cristiano, whose signing was intended by Manchester City.

Finally, the one from Madeira has committed to the Red Devils for two seasons, thus confirming an exciting return to the team led by Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, who will take a great leap in quality after having also making the additions of Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane.
Ronaldo left United 12 years ago. He played 292 official matches in which he scored 118 goals and that led him to 10 titles, including three Premier League titles and one Champions League.
