Cristiano Ronaldo considering Manchester United move?
Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo told the judge
at his tax trial in Spain that he wants to go back to
England.
The Portugal international stands accused of
defrauding authorities out of €14.7 million.
He has been in court fighting those charges, with
his comments regarding a possible return to
England made on July 31.

They have just come to light, through Cadena
SER, with the former Manchester United forward
seemingly opening the door to a possible second
stint in the Premier League.
Ronaldo said: "In England, I never had these
problems, that's why I want to go back there.
"I always paid my taxes, always. In England and
in Spain. And I always paid.
“As you know, I cannot hide anything, it would be
ridiculous on my part to do such a thing. I am an
open book.
“You don't need to do anything but type my name
into Google and everything about Cristiano
comes out. For example, Forbes magazine
releases all of my earnings"
Ronaldo was responding to questions from Judge
Monica Gomez Ferrer.
Ronaldo's cryptic Instagram message
He added: "I paid everything in 2014. I don't
understand anything about this, I only went to
school until my sixth year and the only thing I
know how to do is play football well. When my
advisors tell me, 'Cris, it's okay' then I believe
them.
Ronaldo went on to defend his agent Jorge
Mendes, saying: "I pay, I want to be honest and I
always pay.
"I trust my advisors and they are the best. I pay
them well and they do good things and I leave
everything in their hands."
The 32-year-old sparked exit talk earlier this
summer when reports emerged suggesting that
he wanted out of Real Madrid after being accused
of tax fraud.
Speculation dragged on throughout his
involvement at the Confederations Cup, before he
finally addressed the issue.

Ronaldo told Marca in July : "Winning major
trophies with my club last year was great, just
like the individual trophies. Doing it again would
be fine.
"You have to work hard, year after year, I will
continue to do it. Football is my life, it is my
passion."
Ronaldo signed a five-year contract with Real in
November 2016.
