Manchester United fans can continue to pine, safe in the knowledge that Cristiano Ronaldo will not be showing up in a light blue shirt in the coming seasons.
The Portuguese star admits United is ‘not the same’ as the side he left in 2009 but, in a BT Sport interview, he did not rule out a return to his old club.
Moving to cross-town rivals City, however, is not an option.
“You think the money is going [to] change my mind now, at 30 years old?,” Ronaldo incredulously asked.
“I don’t think so. I think this is not going to be the problem.
“If you speak about the money I will go to Qatar. Maybe they probably have more money than Manchester City. But it’s not about the money, it’s about the passion.”
