Former right-back Gary Neville has been proven right that Manchester United would not mount a Premier League title charge despite Cristiano Ronaldo's return to the club.
Following the additions of Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund and Raphael Varane from Spanish heavyweights Real Madrid, United were not expected to complete anymore business ahead of the summer transfer window slamming shut on August 31. However, they made a last-ditch attempt to re-sign Ronaldo, bringing him back to Old Trafford from Juventus.
The Portuguese star, who recently turned 37, had signalled his intentions to leave the Italian club ahead of the window closing and he looked set to join Manchester City. However, in a dramatic turn of events, United nipped in and got a deal over the line in what was one of the most dramatic days the transfer window has ever seen.
