There is a saying in soccer that if any star player acknowledges role of his any previous club, the club becomes the eye candy for aspiring players and this is something that is going to happen with Manchester United – Cristiano Ronaldo’s former side whom he still reckons as the finest place to play football. The Portuguese international is recovering from an injury he sustained during the world cup and talking about his former association with the league side, he openly said he would love to go back there if he had to ever leave Spanish side. His statement has no means practically since everyone knows he would never go anywhere else, especially after signing a five year contract with Spanish giants that tied him with Santiago Bernabéu side until 2018 yet his loyal testimonial for his former side opens lots of opportunities for United particularly for its Dutch manager who can now aspire for his favorite players. Ronaldo recalls his six seasons with 2012-13 league champions as the golden era in his career when he enjoyed the status of God.
Actually, everybody knows the role of Manchester United in successful career of once priciest player of the world that made him player worth eighty million pounds while The Red Devils bought him for just12.8 million pounds back in 2003. His tenure with English side had as well been most successful for the side wherein they won three premier league titles along with one Championship league and Portuguese scored 118 goals in his 292 games played for Glazer’s side. Talking about his golden years in England, World Player of the Year said, “I love Manchester, and to be back, I never know, you never know. football you never know. Of course, I’m happy at Real Madrid, it’s my home, it’s my club, but Manchester treated me unbelievable so we never know.
“I was 18 years old, I win everything there, the people treat me like a God there so I appreciate that and the future, nobody knows. I remember when we played there against Manchester in the Champions League: they kill me, my heart was so happy.
“I had fantastic moments and I appreciate this club. For me, it’s one of the best clubs in the world and I have passion for this club. Some players I am still in contact with because when I was there, I created a good relationship with everybody, not just the players, but all the staff around.”
