Metro have managed to cause quite a stir here in the Football Transfer Tavern after bringing up that old rumour about Cristiano Ronaldo and his potential return to Old Trafford.
The Real Madrid star is currently at odds with the Los Blancos fans and the board.
This is after going out and celebrating his birthday only hours after seeing his team crash to a shocking and rather humiliating 4-0 defeat at the hands of cross-town neighbours and rivals Atletico Madrid, and that did not go down well with the Santiago Bernabeu faithful at all.
Given Ronaldo was just coming back from a spell on the sidelines after seeing red, we cannot really blame the Madridistas but according to reports in Spanish publication El Confidencial, the situation is now so bad that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is prepared to sell Ronaldo if the offer is right.
Now as our regulars point out, not only would a mega deal break the bank for United but it would bring a player back to the club that they don’t really need right now with their defence in dire straights.
However as our landlord quickly intercepts the conversation, everyone could do with a player like Ronaldo in their side.
