BREAKING: Manchester United hijack Ronaldo bid

Manchester United are now confident of bringing Cristiano Ronaldo back to Old Trafford, in a surprising twist of events.

It was earlier reported that Ronaldo had agreed to personal terms with Manchester City, but most recent reports have stated that City have now pulled out.

According to reports, Man United are preparing their official contract proposal to Ronaldo and his agent, Jorge Mendes will receive it soon.

If the deal goes through, Ronaldo will be back at Old Trafford for his second spell at the club.

The great Portuguese starred under Sir Alex Ferguson from 2003 to 2009 – years in which he rose to superstardom.
