Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo wants to re-join Spanish giants Real Madrid, according to a report.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner is understood to have expressed his desire to leave the Serie A outfit and is now considering his options.
According to AS, the 36-year-old 'wants to return' to the Santiago Bernabeu, though the Portuguese international is aware that his potential move depends on whether Real are successful in their pursuit of Kylian Mbappe.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward is considered as a dream signing for president Florentino Perez, who wants the 22-year-old to become the club's next Galactico.
Mbappe's potential arrival at Real could hinder Ronaldo's return, though newly-appointed head coach Carlo Ancelotti, who worked with the forward between 2013 and 2015, could persuade the club's hierarchy to recruit the Juve man as well.
Since joining from Real Madrid in 2018, Ronaldo has made 133 appearances for Juventus, scoring 101 goals and providing 22 assists.
