The Athletic: Cristiano Ronaldo on his way back to Manchester, set for talks with Ten Hag Manchester United

Cristiano Ronaldo is finally travelling back to Manchester on Monday evening, according to The Athletic, a tier-one source.

The 37-year-old is set to have crunch talks with Manchester United about his future after missing the pre-season tour of Asia and Australia.

It remains to be seen whether the Portuguese will join the rest of the squad in training on Tuesday but a conversation with Erik ten Hag will be taking place.

The Red Devils consider Ronaldo's return to England to be a 'positive sign'. There's still a 'lack of clarity' about the situation but it's looking 'increasingly likely' that Cristiano will stay.
