The summer transfer window is a time plagued by countless tabloid fabricated transfer rumors. This summer has produced speculation ranging from the conceivable to the impossible. These past 13 weeks, the point of focus has been Wayne Rooney's transfer saga. Another topic of conversation among the Red contingent has been that of a sensational return for prodigal son Cristiano Ronaldo.
Reports attest that the England international has been looking to force a move to pastures anew with league rivals Chelsea being the likely destination. Rooney is reportedly in an untenable situation claiming to be confused and angry over his place in the squad. Then there is the report that has almost always been half whispered in a sense of wishful yearning: the return of Cristiano Ronaldo.
United's transfer dealings, or therefor lack of, have come under scrutiny for their failure to land a player in what has been a merry-go-round of midfield transfer targets. Facing the prospect of losing Wayne Rooney has left United adamant that they won't sell, as they have already rejected two bids for him from Chelsea with a third expected after their crunch match up this Monday.
With the imminent arrival of welsh wonder Gareth Bale to Los merengues. the conclusion of this drawn out transfer has lead to reports indicating that Cristiano Ronaldo has made his interest in a return clear to officials at Old Trafford. The arrival of Bale for a transfer record of £86 million will undoubtedly come as a blow to Ronaldo's ego and there is bound to be a clash of superstars in the Real camp.
The possibility of either of these scenarios coming to fruition is highly unlikely, as the possibility of selling to a domestic rivals is a situation that won't be considered by the United board. A more conceivable transfer abroad is more plausible, but Rooney's reluctance to leave England means that the striker is likely to stay. As for Ronaldo, Real's main man will be looking to aid Real in their quest for the ever fabled La Decima. This incentive along with the new challenge presented by Bale means that Ronaldo will be staying at Real, at least for the upcoming season.
