New Delhi: Manchester United believe that they
will not let Wayne Rooney leave this summer and are harboring hopes that
the emotional attachment of Old Trafford may be enough to persuade
Cristiano Ronaldo to return to the club to partner him.
United still believe Sir Alex Ferguson’s influence as a director at
the club will work in their favour, and that a word from the ex-boss in
Ron’s ear can swing a transfer their way.
Ferguson will not be interfering with the new era of David Moyes but if he can encourage Ronaldo to come back he will do so.
The Portugal ace and Ferguson have remained close since the player left in 2009 for £80million.
When Fergie’s retirement was announced Ronaldo simply tweeted: “Thanks for everything, Boss.”
It was another tweet yesterday that gave United fans hope, which
said: “All the news about my renewal with Real Madrid are false.”
That offered further encouragement to United who are willing to offer £65m plus a player — or straight cash if need be.
The Premier League champions believe that Ronaldo is desperate to
leave Real Madrid and, though they accept that they will be unable to
compete financially with Monaco or Paris Saint-Germain in a pursuit of
the player, they believe that his emotional ties to Old Trafford could
be decisive.
