Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has suggested that the club may be prepared to spend more than £ 60 million in their efforts to bring back former star Cristiano Ronaldo to Old Trafford. The possibility of Ronaldo returning to United has become a real possibility with the player also understood to be interested. Van Gaal, however, confirmed that any potential deal would take place only if Madrid are interested in selling their superstar. The last six months have seen Ronaldo picking niggling injuries, which may appear to suggest that he is declining from his peak.

Angel di Maria is a transfer that totally justifies the £60 million spent on him. The Argentine will be able to offer around seven years of top-level football. United will be far better off spending the money on players that they really need at this moment. The club has some serious issues to address especially in the defence where the likes of Johnny Evans look out of depth at times. The position is even made worse by the fact that Evans is the most experienced defender at United. The club kept its second consecutive clean sheet of the season in the 4-0 win against QPR. This positive result came after a 0-0 draw with Burnley, but it should be remembered that both these clean sheets have come against newly promoted teams.

Far sterner tests like United this season with matches against Manchester City and Chelsea around the corner. Perhaps, Van Gaal will realise from these matches that United need an experienced defender more than any other player now. “It is possible. Players like Ronaldo give a lot of extra to a team, but I don’t think Real Madrid shall sell him. Yes, but it’s always a discussion in the papers, and I don’t think the media shall buy Ronaldo,” said Van Gaal.
