Cristiano Ronaldo wants £500,000-a-week to rejoin Man Utd

Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo is willing to make a Premier League comeback, should Manchester United cough up £500,000-a-week salary for the deal.

The Real Madrid forward has recently expressed his desire to return to his former club next season. According to The Mail, the Portuguese international has requested an eye-catching £24m-a-year in wages, in order to convince him into leaving the Bernabeu next summer.

Club-captain Wayne Rooney is the highest earner on a weekly salary of £300,000, and this shows that the Mancunian giants could face a tough task to match the wage structure demanded by Ronaldo.

Ronaldo has scored 256 goals in 252 games for Los Blancos so far.
