Manchester United keen on luring Cristiano Ronaldo with pay-rise promise

Manchester United are reportedly keen on luring Cristiano Ronaldo back to Old Trafford during the summer transfer window. The 33-year-old left the Red Devils for Real Madrid nearly nine years ago, and he has since emerged as one among the world's elite players with three Champions League crowns to his name.

According to Don Balon, United could make a shock approach to re-sign the Portugal international in the summer with the club's hierarchy prepared to discuss a significant increase on his £365,000-a-week wages after tax.

Despite this, it may come as a huge surprise if Los Blancos are to part ways with the world-class attacker, who has contributed 23 goals in his previous 13 games for club and country.

Moreover, Mourinho have also placed emphasis on bolstering the midfield and defensive departments during the summer, and there is not an urgent need to bolster the attack, which has flourished more often than not this term.
