Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo has highlighted the role his former team-mates played in making his decision to return to Old Trafford all the more easier.
Cristiano Ronaldo said “It made the decision very easy for me. I have played with Ole, Fletch [Darren Fletcher] and Michael Carrick, they know me. They know who I am and how I play. So it is great to be part of this era of Manchester United right now with the new players and new generation. People I see, things have changed but the mentality has never changed, it is always to win and I am here to help the club make history again and put Manchester United where they deserve to be. When I came here at 18, I learnt so much with you and with all the guys. I am here again to make history and give my best and try to win important things – this is why I am here.”
Ronaldo is poised to make his second debut for United when they lock horns with Newcastle United at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.
