Ace broadcaster Piers Morgan has named the person who convinced Cristiano Ronaldo to return to Old Trafford.
Piers Morgan claimed that it was actually Sir Alex Ferguson that convinced Cristiano Ronaldo to return to Man United.
As of yesterday the 36-year-old Portugal international was heading to the blue half of Manchester.
However, there was a sudden development on Friday and the Portuguese now finds himself back at Old Trafford where he once spent six successful years.
Morgan, who had an exclusive one-on-one interview with Ronaldo last year said that his return to the Red Devils did not shock him.
The 56-year-old tweeted: “Not surprised that [Ronaldo] is returning to United after speaking to Sir Alex Ferguson.
“When I interviewed him, his respect & admiration for ‘The Boss’ was off the charts.
“He’s been like a second father to him, especially since the sad early death of Cristiano’s dad.”
Ferguson signed Ronaldo from Sporting Lisbon and the then youngster went on to become a United legend.
