Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United came a bit out of the blue. While the Portuguese superstar had been linked with a move away from Juventus all summer, it did not look like a move to Old Trafford was on the cards.

Instead, it was Manchester City that he was being heavily linked with late in the transfer window after it emerged that Harry Kane was set to remain at Tottenham Hotspur. But the Red Devils appeared to move swiftly and get a deal done to bring Ronaldo back to the Theatre of Dreams.

Now, there have been some questions regarding his age and how he would adjust to the Premier League at this stage of his career. Ronaldo seems pretty confident though that he can make an impact not just now but in the foreseeable future as well and is here to win titles.

As reported by Manchester United’s official website, in an interview with former teammate Wes Brown, Ronaldo said:

"“I am not here for a vacation. As I told you, before was good, winning important things and I wore the shirt before many years ago, but I am here to win again.“I am capable, me and my team-mates. I am ready to go, I am ready to go. It is a good chance for me, for the supporters, for the club, to get one step ahead.“I am ready and I think I will be a huge thing in the next three or four years.”"

Ronaldo can have a huge impact on this Manchester United team

There is not much to say that has not been said about Ronaldo as a footballer already. He is one of the best in the history of the game and has been at top for around a decade-and-a-half now. That is certainly a very impressive feat.

Even at 36 years of age, he remains a brilliant goalscorer. He ended the previous season as the top scorer in Serie A and even topped the scoring charts at EURO 2020.

But it is not just on the pitch that he could make a massive impact on this Manchester United team but off it as well. The young and rising players at Old Trafford can learn a lot from someone with the experience and quality of Ronaldo and it could help them take their own games to the next level.
