According to the English press, the 36-year-old Portuguese will sign for two seasons, returning to a career at Old Trafford that saw him score 118 goals in 292 games.
Ronaldo will undergo a medical examination in Lisbon, the city to which he traveled this Friday after leaving Turin on a private plane.
It is also necessary for United to agree with Juventus on the transfer of a player who did not want to continue in Italy and who will return to the club where he exploded as a player. There is talk of an offer of 25 million euros.
According to the English press, that would have been thanks to Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United's historical coach, who had already signed during his time with the Portuguese.

Manchester United is delighted to confirm the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo on a two-year contract with the option to extend for a further year, subject to international clearance.
Cristiano, a five-time Ballon D’or winner, has so far won over 30 major trophies during his career, including five UEFA Champions League titles, four FIFA Club World Cups, seven league titles in England, Spain and Italy, and the UEFA European Championship for his native Portugal. Cristiano is the first player to have won league titles in England, Spain and Italy. He was also the highest goalscorer in last season’s Serie A and won the golden boot at this year’s European Championship. In his first spell for Manchester United, he scored 118 goals in 292 games.
Ferguson called Cristiano Ronaldo this morning upon learning that the forward was close to signing for Manchester United's city rival Manchester City. In the Mancuniano group, he became a legend during the six seasons he was there. That is why the former coach could not allow CR7 to play for City and would have convinced the player to return to what was his home. In this way, Ferguson continues to help the club he loves.
The relationship between the two has been very good since the Scottish coach set his eyes on him in 2003. In the summer of that same year, Cristiano would place himself under Ferguson's orders at Manchester United, but not before disbursing 19 million euros to Sporting Lisbon.
Proof of their great friendship is the visit that Cristiano Ronaldo made to Sir Alex Ferguson in 2018. The Scotsman took advantage of a trip he made to Manchester to visit his former coach, who has just undergone a tough operation.
