Former Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has claimed that Cristiano Ronaldo is seeking a move back to Manchester United.
In a recent interview with TalkSport, Calderon has revealed that Ronaldo has increased in frustration with current president Florentino Perez’s current policy at the club and is ready to finally make a move back to England.
Various reports have suggested that a move to Manchester United or Chelsea once the window re-opens in January, but it appears as if United will be the only club that Ronaldo would be interested in if he leaves the Spanish giants.
Calderon told talkSPORT: “My impression is he is fed up with the policy of the current president.
“When he came [to Real Madrid] with [Arjen] Robben he thought he would be a good colleague for him in the team [but then he was sold].
“Two years ago it was [Gonzalo] Higuain sold and he didn’t like that. Last year he thought it was a mistake to let [Mesut] Ozil leave and the last straw was selling Xabi Alonso and Angel di Maria this summer.”
And Calderon believes a return to United could well be on the cards given Ronaldo’s affection for the club.
He added: “When I signed him in 2008, I remember he said he was grateful to Manchester United.
“He had a marvellous time there, he likes everything. It is a really great club.”
