It's not the most sensible economic move, but I'd love to see him back. I would absolutely love it. It won't happen though.

He might also be peeved at that young French Striker Madrid keep getting linked too. Someone with his ego, you never know. Sadly it probably is all about £££ and so what can we do about that? It's come out of nowhere seemingly. That said where is there for Ronaldo to go? He could win more trophies but maybe he's realized he's not longer the young shiny toy. He could be having a mid life crisis at 32 
He should return to United and not even consider a club like PSG. Not being biased obviously. He also of course talked about the crowds and not being happy with the booing etc. He has a point. Of all the players to boo, never boo Ronaldo. The Brazilian or the mid life crisis one.

It'd take our whole transfer budget to get him here though which I'd choose to spend elsewhere.
A week ago(before the new about the taxes)As and some another newspapers wrote that Madrid would receive a big offer,so maybe he/the club already knew it before was published or maybe it's simply a coincidence.
He can be angry since Florentino ordered his friends in the press to separate Madrid and Cristiano when writing about taxes

But. But. But think of the shirt sales....
Seems like the sun was right about Ronaldo Day all those years ago
Hasn't Ibra shown this season that world class players who look after themselves can play well into their 30s?
He'd instantly become the best player in the league by some distance but you'd prefer us to focus on youth? Crazy talk. Also, he's going to cost a hell of a lot more than £60 million.
I can see what is going to happen a mile off. Ed will get excited, pull out of the Morota deal and go after Ronaldo. Morota will go elsewhere, and Ronaldo will get his pay rise while we are left scratching our fecking heads and wiping our tears. feck off.
It probably ins't a pay rise he's after considering he has a contract until 2021, but he most likely knows he was lose his 14m tax fraud case and is angling at Madrid paying it.

Come on Woody. Bring him back home. He can still offer a lot to us.
There's been a thread floating around recently about whether or not we have any players that the opposition fear. They would fear Ronaldo.

This 32 year old guarantees you more than 40 goals a season. That's 80 goals in two seasons, worst case scenario. Take a look around at how many strikers could score more than 80 in three seasons..
If Ed's eyes were lit up by this then I assume we could find a way to get this done without massively affecting the transfer budget?
Could sponsors help out it is such an arrangement just a football myth?

Ronaldo for me. Lukaku could go a similar way to Rooney. I think Ronaldo will go a similar route to Zlatan.
LOL so the mysterious source of his conversation was his journo mates in Madrid - notthing to see here more along....
He's almost 50 FFS! No way the fee is that much.

Barca got a lot of heat for the Neymar and Messi cases.
Flo won't want any of that and that might have ticked off Ronaldo.
This is an overreaction that will be sorted after one phone call.
Yup - we're gonna bring him home by tractor.

If you get 2 years of cris, it's a no brainer. All that difference in money, you make up with image rights and trophies
Some people in this thread already allowing themselves to dream.This is not happening!
That's OK. I read yesterday we are linked to Talisca and wiki tells me that he can play as forward too.
Sign him and win PL/CL double. You've already made money out of the deal, on top of trophies
Double that, then add your wife. If your ok with that, we're on.
Take one for the team.
There are few things in life that are worse value than Lukaku for 100m.
Thought he was an attacking midfielder?
PogBack and now Ronaldhome. Why not?
Yeah but wiki has forward as his alternate position. Who am I to question wiki?
Jason Pettigrove haha.
Not a chance he has any ITK sources.

LOL. Madrid will communicate to him that he´ll get a prison sentence, if he leaves and a fine, if he stays.
Swap De Gea!
Nope, not happening. I can't do this
There is no need to worry about the financial aspect of it. We will recover everything just by jersey sales if we sign him. It would be like the biggest return of all time and you just know that it will break all sort of jersey sales records by miles.
I am not saying that there is any chance of it happening, but if Madrid ask 150 million, I would just throw it at them and sign Ronaldo. He will age brilliant and can play till 40 easily if he avoids major injuries. And by major, I mean leg breaks etc. Recovery 150 million spent on Ronaldo is much more easier than recovering 60 million spent on any other player in the world for United..

The club has him locked down to a 4 yr contract and it would look terrible if they are seen to be compensating him for evading taxes. I know Ronaldo is throwing a tantrum but the tax case has nothing to do with the club so, there's nothing he can achieve by getting the club on his side.
Last week
Like I suspected, he feels the tax issue is the club fault as it concerns his image rights.
The man simply wants to be paid.
When he leaves he will be back at sporting Lisbon IMO. The guy has always had a plan and I don't see him changing it now. Probably will stay at Madrid for a year or 2 before heading to portugal.
'Irreversible'

If this was true, I wonder how much Madrid will ask for him . They want 90m euros for a bench player so Ronaldo will cost more than double of that.
