Football pundit Gary Neville feels Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival at Manchester United will undoubtedly boost the club's chances in the Premier League.

United agreed to sign the player from Juventus for a reported cost of €15 million, with an additional €8 million guaranteed as add-ons.

The 36-year-old is expected to sign a two-year contract with the club and will undergo a physical in Lisbon. The Portuguese striker won several accolades, including three Premier League championships and one Champions League victory.

On being asked about Ronaldo’s return the former United right back answered, “It’s fantastic news.

“It’s a little bit nostalgic, which doesn’t always work in football, but the idea of Ronaldo going to Manchester City was torture for United fans.

“If there is a big player available, United have to be in the market. We know there’s a potential that Erling Haaland could be available next summer, Edinson Cavani’s probably got a year, they definitely need a centre-forward option with Cavani.

“I know they’ve got Mason Greenwood but if you look at the business Chelsea have done, that Manchester City were looking to do, Manchester United had to compete, and what they’ve done is bolster the squad with a proven goalscorer, a club legend, and it’s going to give them an incredible 12 months.
