Cristiano Ronaldo is suggested as a potential Manchester United returnee due to the Saudi star’s ‘unfinished business.’

Cristiano Ronaldo, who left Manchester United under contentious circumstances in 2022, might make a surprising return to Old Trafford, according to former United forward Louis Saha. Despite his ongoing career with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia and approaching his 40th birthday, Ronaldo’s future remains a topic of speculation, especially about a potential comeback.

Ronaldo’s first spell at Manchester United is celebrated as one of the greatest in the club’s history, marked by his exceptional performances and numerous accolades. However, his second stint ended in controversy following a high-profile interview with Piers Morgan that led to his departure from the club.

Currently playing for Al-Nassr and maintaining his role as Portugal’s captain, Ronaldo has not publicly indicated any plans to retire or step away from football before the 2026 World Cup. Despite this, Saha believes Ronaldo’s enduring passion for the game and deep connection with Manchester United could lead him back to the club, potentially in a coaching or managerial role.

Speaking to TVSporten, Saha expressed his conviction that Ronaldo’s dedication could see him return to Old Trafford in a different capacity. “Cristiano Ronaldo has the passion and dedication to return to Manchester United one day,” Saha said. “That could be as a coach or even a manager,” he added, as reported by the Mirror.

Ronaldo’s potential return to Manchester United, whether in a coaching or managerial role, would undoubtedly be met with enthusiasm from fans eager to see the legendary forward contribute to the club’s future success.
