Apparently turned down £15m/year at city....what sort of deal has he accepted

"Cristiano Ronaldo has agreed a sensational return to Manchester United, the club announced on Friday, in a €15 million deal with a potential further €8m in add-ons, according to ESPN sources."

Anyone can blend into the crowd.  How will you standout when it counts?

Great news. The best player in my lifetime to grace a football pitch .The complete striker. Looking forward to watching him play.

That works out at £ 400k a week. Sheer madness. F***k FFP

You never saw Pele, Haynes, Best, dive & scream like a little girl when touched. Good player, yes , but not the best in my lifetime.

Sky Italia reporting 2 year deal......£50m in his sky, no questions asked

Another player who left to seek fame and fortune but failed and has to to his English club to find fame again.  :005:
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope

Don't care about all that crap. He is a genius on the pitch. End of.

Fee is 15m because he is 36, not wages.

Yes, lots of players from the old days earning £20 per week that I would place ahead of Ronaldo.

How come we didn't sign him, no ambition at FFC!! (LOL)

You can still watch almost all of his games online. Calling him a "good" player must be one of the understatement of the year. He may not be Pele,  but he's a legendary footballer.

Who cares what players earn? Damn, if you was offered big money you wouldn't turn it down. Agree that players dive and that nowadays but they do entertain and him more than most. Unfortunately it's the modern game now.

Exactly.Transfer fee.  I'm sure he'll get a decent wage though.

Be good to seem him finish his career over here; the GOAT in my opinion

I remember him at The Cottage years back. Sat in the Riverside then, and in one quiet spell he was very near us on the pitch by the touchline and my missus (who don't like him and thinks he's a showoff) yelled "PooHead" at him. He gave her a very odd look....

Agreed. Done the business some of Europe's top, top clubs, won the Euro's (almost single handedly) as well and still fighting fit.

Yeah, he's better IMO. I know Pele won 3 world cups, but the entire Brazilian team was amazing as well. They're both absolutely elite - but did Pele conquer all the major leads and continue playing like a mad man until he was 36? No.

Ronaldo has Won Portuguese League and domestic cups. Won English League, domestic cups, international cups. Won Spanish league, domestic cups, international cups. Won Italian league, domestic cups. Won Euros. Is 36 and still prolific.
Someone once asked me, "Why Fulham?".
