Former Liverpool star Stan Collymore has suggested that Manchester United were “frightened” into resigning Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 36-year-old returned to his old club in a €20m deal (according to The Guardian) following a spell at Serie A giants Juventus.

Manchester City were thought to be in the running for the Portuguese international, though it would appear now that the ex-Real Madrid icon was swayed by the prospect of a fairytale reunion with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s outfit.

Collymore went on to add that though he thought Ronaldo would add goals to the side, the signing wouldn’t necessarily bring United a step closer to the Premier League title.
