Ronaldo returns to Real Madrid: A hero's homecoming

In 2009, Ronaldo moved from Manchester United to Real Madrid for a then-record sum of 103 million CAD. The transfer became one of the most talked-about in football history. Although Cristiano hasn't played for Real Madrid for six years, he still remembers his former club.

For nine years, Cristiano Ronaldo was the star of Real Madrid. He won every possible trophy with the club and scored 450 goals in 438 matches. Thus, he is the most prolific player in the Royals' history.

However, in the summer of 2018, he swapped Real for Juventus Turin because he felt President Florentino Perez did not treat him properly.

Attempts to replace Cristiano Ronaldo cost Real Madrid a sum of 335 million CAD. Eden Hazard cost 127 million CAD, Vinicius (50 million CAD), Rodrygo (50 million CAD), Mariano Diaz (24 million CAD), Luka Jović (67 million CAD), and Brahim Diaz (19 million CAD) - these six players were meant to replace the Portuguese football star in goal-scoring for the Royals.

After years, the atmosphere has changed, and Cristiano Ronaldo is still held in high regard in Madrid. Taking advantage of the international break, the Portuguese player appeared at Real Madrid's training centre.

In the videos that have appeared online, Ronaldo is seen talking with coach Carlo Ancelotti and club legend Roberto Carlos.

Michael Owen believes that Cristiano Ronaldo, who currently plays for Al-Nassr, could take charge of the Portuguese national team or manage clubs like Manchester United or Real Madrid after his playing career.

Although Ronaldo does not plan a coaching career for now, Owen sees potential in him to take up coaching after finishing his football career.

The newspaper " The Sun" emphasizes that the discussion about Ronaldo's potential future as a coach is gaining momentum, especially now as his football career slowly comes to an end.
