Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly made a plea to his agent Jorge Mendes to seal a return to Manchester United, Mirror UK reports.
The Portuguese superstar continues to be linked with a sensational comeback at Old Trafford after apparently making an ‘irreversible’ decision to leave Real Madrid.
The player is reportedly upset at Real Madrid after Spanish authorities accused him of a £13million tax fraud.
Ronaldo joined United in 2003 aged 18 and went on to score 118 goals in 292 appearances for the Red Devils in six years.
He left for Real in 2009, becoming Los Blancos’ record goal scorer with 406 strikes in 394 outings to date.
As reported in Monday’s Mirror, United are willing to go all out to land Ronaldo in a £175million deal over the summer, including letting David De Gea leave for the Bernabeu.
Although he has interest from China, Ronaldo wants to remain in Europe and United could have massive competition from PSG who intend to use their own financial firepower to make a rival bid.
Ronaldo scored 55 goals for club and country last season, shooting Real to the Spanish title and a third Champions League in four seasons.
