Ronny’s Return
Hot on the heels of the Bale story was one parped from the rooftops by the Sun a few days ago that Cristiano Ronaldo is coming home to Manchester. The logical part of the story – Ronaldo has put his house up for sale in Madrid and declined to extend his contract when offered the chance with two years to run and… Oh yeah. He was quite popular in Manchester for some reason. So where does this conspiracy fall down? Much was made of Ronaldo being allegedly unhappy at Madrid towards the end of the season due to his relationship with Mourinho souring – not much of an issue there any more. Also the red top notes how CR7 loved mentor Fergie and has kept in touch since leaving the Red Devils. Again, sort of not really relevant any more. The paper fails to note what sort of glowing man love Ronaldo and David Moyes share. There’s just enough sense in the alleged facts not to dismiss out of hand completely, but considering the relatively tight financial ship United have run of late and the limited resale value United would see from a 28 year old Ronaldo, we’ll file this one as a sceptical ‘we’ll see’.
