Cristiano Ronaldo made sure that his exit from Manchester United was definitive. After the carefully choreographed TV interview in the winter of 2022, CR7 made sure that the gates opened for exit and closed for good. Then Ronaldo’s former teammate signed on the Portuguese national team as Manchester United coach.
Former Manchester United player Louis Saha has spoken about the prospect of Ronaldo representing Manchester United for the third time. Manchester United’s lack of goals from the striker position and his close relationship with Amorim make it an ideal opportunity, according to Ronaldo’s former teammate. In addition, the 39-year-old is heading towards contract expiration in the summer.

“I think Cristiano Ronaldo would love to return to the club in a role where he is respected. He left the club on slightly bad terms, so the club’s hierarchy may not want that to happen, but the players and fans understood what he was. People can’t say that what he said was wrong (in the TV interview),” Saha writes on his social media.
Rene Meulensteen was one of Alex Ferguson’s assistant coaches at Manchester United from 2007-13. The Dutchman can almost guarantee that CR7 will not return to Old Trafford, even if he is begged to pull on the United shirt by Amorim.
-Ronaldo has expanded his brand in another area of the world and has been able to continue playing for the Portuguese national team and will want to play in the 2026 World Cup. If he went back to a top club in Europe, he might not start in every game, and that’s not what he wants. He will keep starting and keep scoring and trying to reach 1000 goals. It will be a big incentive for him now,” Meulensteen says to Tribalfotball.
