The Blues were close to adding the Portugal star to their squad in what would have been a huge shock, but the Reds intervened at the last minute to re-sign their former star and prevent him from playing in sky blue.
He returned a respectable 24 goals last season, but the team finished sixth in the Premier League and trophyless for another year. Now, he wants to leave Old Trafford.
In the meantime, City just fine managed without a striker, the winning Premier League in dramatic fashion and have now been able to sign one of the world's exciting most talents in Erling Haaland.
Eleven months on, and the Blues will be glad United swooped in to sign Ronaldo.
The Reds insist their man is not for sale, and is under contract for another year, however, the reports that surfaced on Saturday night claim the Portuguese superstar has asked for any reasonable bid for him to be accepted.
