Cristiano Ronaldo's mother rules out return to Manchester United for her son

The mother of Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has ruled out the possibility of her son returning to Manchester United in the future.

Ronaldo has regularly spoken of his fondness for the Red Devils ever since leaving the club for the Bernabeu in a then-world record £80m transfer in 2009.

The three-time Ballon d'Or winner, who spent six years playing at Old Trafford, is constantly linked with a return to the Premier League giants, but the player's mother Dolores Aveiro has claimed that her son's future remains in Spain.

According to The Independent, during the launch of her autobiography, she said: "Cristiano is happy here, he would like to finish his career at Real Madrid."

Ronaldo has scored 47 goals in 45 appearances for Madrid this season.
