Cristiano Ronaldo has finally broken his silence to quash claims that he could re-join Sporting Lisbon this summer - but his Manchester United future remains uncertain.
The Portuguese veteran dropped a major bombshell on Erik ten Hag earlier this month when he made it clear that he would like to quit Old Trafford this summer if the club receive a suitable bid for him - just 12 months after he made a stunning return to the Premier League.
Ronaldo is desperate to play Champions League football next term and has been linked with a host of clubs who would be able to offer him what he craves. However, talk of a return to Sporting Lisbon, Ronaldo's boyhood club, has emerged in recent days.
