In what has been an eventful summer with many star players finding new homes, Manchester United dropped the biggest bombshell in recent memory by bringing back Cristiano Ronaldo.
United secured a move for the start striker after agreeing to a fee with Juventus for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. It is expected that the Serie A club will receive €2 million-plus, up to even €3 million in bonuses.
Talks between Juventus and United picked up on Friday when it was reported that Manchester City were no longer interested in the 36-year-old. For the first time in nearly 12 years, Ronaldo will make what should be an emotional return to Old Trafford.
Here's how the football world reacted to the day's biggest news:

Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo is the type of transfer window you'd see on a United career mode and then complain it isn't realistic #mufc

Cristiano Ronaldo is officially heading back to Manchester United.
The result? $MANU is up 8%, meaning Ronaldo has added about $250 million in market cap to the stock already.
That's insane. pic.twitter.com/5zJDU8u0lC— Joe Pompliano (@JoePompliano) August 27, 2021
Ronaldo made sure that he gave Juventus a proper goodbye, posting on his Instagram account thanking the team and fans.

City was seen as the popular landing spot for Ronaldo but the club never made an offer for the striker as they appeared to be reluctant to pay a fee to Juventus. The team also struck out on their attempt to acquire Tottenham striker Harry Kane during the summer transfer window.

It is rumoured that it was a call from Sir Alex Ferguson to his former protege that helped make up Cristiano Ronaldo’s mind to reject Manchester City’s overtures. [@LukeEdwardsTele]
