Former Manchester United coach Mike Phelan believes that Cristiano Ronaldo is unlikely to return to the club.
United have been linked with a summer swoop for the current Ballon d'Or holder, and while Phelan thinks that the Real Madrid star would listen to the Red Devils, the ex-coach admitted that a comeback is not realistic.
"Ronaldo loved his time at Manchester United and, if Manchester United were interested in him again, then he would listen to that because part of his career has come through Man United," he told IBTimes UK.
"But listen, he is where he is because of him being Ronaldo and, at the moment, Madrid are successful so I can't see why he would think about coming back to Manchester United now."
Ronaldo moved to Los Blancos from United for around £80m in 2009.
