It happened. The "Manchester United" club announced that Cristiano Ronaldo is returning to Manchester after a 12-year break. The Manchester club managed to reach an agreement both with the "Juventus" club and with the Portuguese himself regarding personal terms. Prior to this, C. Ronaldo and his agent Jorge Mendes were negotiating with the "Manchester City" club, but yesterday they contacted the agent of the "Manchester United" club and today everything changed. The "Citizens" withdrew from the negotiations, and then the "Red Devils" had a clear path to reach an agreement with the 36-year-old veteran for a contract, as well as with the Turin club, which was willing to part ways with C. Ronaldo. It is reported that "Manchester United" offered 25 million euros for the forward plus bonuses. According to the English press, this morning several former "Man Utd" players contacted the Portuguese legend and convinced Cristiano to change his decision. Rio Ferdinand himself confirmed that he had contacted his former teammate. Cristiano Ronaldo spent the last three years playing for Turin's "Juventus", before that he spent 9 seasons playing in Spain for Madrid's "Real" club. It was to Madrid's "Real" that the Portuguese arrived from "Manchester United" in 2009. With the "Royal Club", C. Ronaldo has won four Champions League titles, and with "Man Utd" he managed to win such a title once. However, with the "Red Devils" the Portuguese won the "Premier" league title three times in a row. Cristiano Ronaldo will sign a contract with the Manchester club until 2023 and will earn up to 25 million euros per year, according to Fabrizio Romano.
