Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes is in talks with Manchester United over a possible return of the superstar to Old Trafford.

This is as reports indicated that Manchester City are no longer in the running to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo left United for a then-world record £80m to join Real Madrid in 2009 after spending six years with the club, when he won three Premier League titles, the Champions League, the Club World Cup, the FA Cup, and the League Cup.

Sky Sports News’ Dharmesh Sheth said, “Jorge Mendes, Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent, has approached Man Utd.

“They are in talks over a proposal that could see Ronaldo sensationally return to other clubs.

“Remember, Jorge Mendes is talking to other clubs.

“Man City are apparently out of the equation but there are other European clubs Mendes is talking to.

“But the feeling is now Manchester United are the front runners to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.”
