Cristiano Ronaldo is reported to be unhappy after the arrival of new manager Rafael Benitez at Real Madrid.

The 30 year old star forward was againt the sacking of former manager Carlo Ancelotti and publicly supported the Italian two days before he was sacked.

Ronaldo was twice caught on camera showing his fury against the spanish boss during a training session in Australia prior to face Manchester City on Friday in International Champions Cup.

He lost it on two occasions the first one being a goal disallowed and second one being instructed to try to hit the crossbar during a drill.

Ronaldo is also unhappy with Real Madrid’s treatment with departing goalkeeper Iker Casillas who left the club for Porto with a tearful farewell message to the fans.

In this context, Manchester Evening News says that Manchester United want to re-sign the former Manchester United hero Cristiano Ronaldo as the club intensifies its efforts to build a potentially title-winning squad.

Ronaldo left Old Trafford after a memorable spell to join Real Madrid in 2009 for £80 million which was the transfer record fee until it was overtaken by Gareth Bale’s transfer fee to Real Madrid being £85.3 million.

Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal told the press few days ago that they will sign a surprise player in this window who is very special and who could be more special to United fans than the 3 time Balon d’or winner.

United explored the possibility of signing Ronaldo during David Moyes’ first transfer window in 2013, however the three-time Ballon d’Or winner signed a new contract until 2018.

“There was talk of Ronaldo when I first arrived,” Moyes said last year. “We were close to getting a couple of major names.”
