New Delhi: When it comes to transfers, fans can expect the unexpected in the world of football and so a seemingly impossible deal happened in the month of August. Premier League giants Manchester United stunned the world by signing five-time Ballon d'Or winner and Portuguese great Cristiano Ronaldo for a second time after 11 years.
The legendary striker completed a stunning return to the Premier League club for a two-year contract with the option to extend after telling Juventus that he wants to leave.Ronaldo reportedly had agreed a transfer fee in the region of €15 million, plus €8 million in add-ons with Juventus.
Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United was confirmed, fans are buzzing over his comeback debut match.
Meanwhile, former England cricketer Michael Vaughan feels India vs England fifth and final Test, slated to be played in Manchester on Saturday, will be irrelevant as Cristiano Ronaldo will be making his debut on the very same day.
"Cristiano Ronaldo is making his debut at 3PM UK time (7:30 PM IST) on Saturday, so i am telling you the test match will be irrelevant. Forget test cricket that day, it will be only Ronaldo," Vaughan told Cricbuzz.
Will Ronaldo start his 2nd stint for Manchester United vs Newcastle?
As per a report in The Sun, 36-year-old Ronaldo, who is now in mandatory five-day quarantine in Manchester, could start at the bench for Manchester United in match against Newcastle, due to lack of training.
