City didn't reject him,

It was not City's decision, like pep said in the conference, Ronaldo changed his mind when United showed interest.

this is from ESPN: Sources have said, however, that Ronaldo still favoured a move to
Premier League champions City when United entered negotiations and was
only convinced to consider a return to Old Trafford following contact
from a number of former teammates.

City were left unhappy by Mendes' behaviour, according to ESPN sources, as Ronaldo's
agent decided it would be better to make an emotional return rather than
join hated rivals.

ESPN has been told that Ronaldo was still exchanging texts and WhatsApp messages with some ex-players as
late as 1 a.m. BST on Friday morning.

And sources have
told ESPN that Ronaldo was told in clear terms by former teammates that
his standing in United's history, and the affection with which he is
still held by the fans, would be damaged forever if he signed for City.

Sources added that the contact from ex teammates tugged at Ronaldo's heart
strings to the extent that he informed Mendes he favoured a move back to
United rather City, leading to the Etihad outfit backing out on Friday
to leave United a clear path to sealing a deal.

Ronaldo is an incredible player but City rejected the offer knowing he wouldn't bring much to the table as he is already ageing and may not click with their style of play but man utd willingly accepted because of his legendary status in the club and not because of what he stands to offer. I Wish him all the best.
STFU! Why do you people keep analysing trash? How can Man City reject what they are after? Pep withdrew offer immediately Man U joined the race, knowing fully well that he can't pick City over United

This move he made would be the last straw believe me. EPL is the most watched and followed league with lots of pundits. If Ronaldo gets exposed and fails to deliver at united, trust me it would spell doom for him.
Going to EPL, he should be joining the very best. If Ronaldo no win trophy or no make top 5 highest goal scorers, I no know the excuse wey una go fit make for am bruh
I'm United fan but trust me Chelsea would have been a better second option for him.

Ronaldo’s presence and leadership will give a new direction and winning moral for the team.

I didn’t see this b4 bt now I see the dynamics clearly since Mancity and pep fvckup.

The coach will also have to step up to Ronaldo’s level of play or be changed. It’s Game time bitches now. cool

What leadership? Hmm… this guy’s signing will definitely disrupt fragile Man U.
Mind you there are a lot of egos flying around already in that team. The time Pogba will start his own craze, everywhere go just scatter.

Excerpts from https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/cristiano-ronaldos-manchester-united-return-21420442.amp

“There's also the fact Ronaldo is a domineering presence. At Juventus, he took the No.7 shirt from Juan Cuadrado, claimed free-kick responsibilities from Miralem Pjanic and Paulo Dybala, and naturally took all the Bianconeri's penalties.”

Pobga is the only ego and he needs to win something in United so he will cooperate. Same way Messi takes almost all Barca’s free kicks, Ronaldo can take any free kick he wants wherever he is.

I am so delighted to hear this. I hope his 2nd stint at Manchester United will be more successful than the first.
By the way, who else smell what I smell? I smell the hands of One old Scot from Aberdeen in this U turn from Manchester City to Manchester United.

Sancho on the left

Ronaldo as 9
Bruno as the AM

they can cohabit unless you were expecting Greenwod to take penalties and free kicks

Rashord is currently injured so till he returns United will work with what they have on ground.
Rashford can leave...
United won't miss his presence.

That is the most balanced team in the EPL today. Every position has a solid performer and like-for-like replacement.

And they are going for Kounde too to complete an already over-complete team!

Messi actually ruined Ronaldo's chances of going to PSG when he joined them. It was obvious he was actually keeping an eye on PSG for when he leaves juventus.
But since Messi joined them, that ruled out that move. Bayern Munich aren't interested.
City tried but said they would take him for free or nothing. Let's just say the only option left for him was man Utd. I doubt if he wouldn't have opted for PSG if he had the chance

Say it without crying.
City pulled off after Ferguson called Ronaldo.
Pep himself said only the goat will decide where he wants to play not him or city.
