Manchester
United completed the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo on Tuesday for his second
spell at Old Trafford for a fee that could rise to 23 million euros ($27
million) from Juventus.
The
36-year-old made his name on the world stage in six years at United between
2003 and 2009 before moving to Real Madrid for a then world-record transfer
fee.
Ronaldo
scored 118 goals in 292 games during his first spell at United, winning his
first Ballon d'Or and Champions League title, as well as three Premier League
titles, one FA Cup and two League Cups.
"Manchester
United is a club that has always had a special place in my heart, and I have
been overwhelmed by all the messages I have received since the announcement on
Friday. I cannot wait to play at Old Trafford in front of a full stadium and
see all the fans again," Ronaldo said in a statement from United.
"I'm
looking forward to joining up with the team after the international games, and
I hope we have a very successful season ahead."
The
five-time Ballon d'Or winner has signed a two-year contract with an option to
extend that deal by a further season.
"Ronaldo's
return demonstrates the unique appeal of this club and I am absolutely
delighted he is coming home to where it all started," said United manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who played alongside the Portuguese during his previous
time in England.
Ronaldo
is expected to make his second United debut against Newcastle at Old Trafford
on September 11.
