Manchester United are in advanced talks to re-sign Cristiano Ronaldo after Manchester City pulled out of a potential deal.
Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes has contacted United to propose a deal that would see the Juventus striker return to the club and talks are ongoing.
Manchester City were offered the chance to sign Ronaldo and considered a deal to sign him, as they were believed to be the player’s first choice.
The 36-year-old’s departure from Juventus was confirmed by boss Max Allegri on Friday, as he told a press conference he was told by the player he had “no intention” of playing for the club again.
“Yesterday, speaking with Cristiano, he told me that he has no intention to stay at Juventus and for this reason, he will not be called up tomorrow [against Empoli] and he didn’t train this morning,” Allegri said.
Ronaldo is in the final year of his contract in Turin worth around £500,000-per-week and the Italian giants are asking any suitor to pay a €25m (£21.3m) transfer fee.Ronaldo won three Premier League titles, the Champions League, FA Cup and the League Cup twice for United under former boss Sir Alex Ferguson between 2003 and 2009.
