Van Gaal ´hopeful´ on Ronaldo return

Louis van Gaal is hopeful of striking a deal to bring Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo back to Manchester United.

Ronaldo swapped Old Trafford for the Santiago Bernabeu in 2009 for a then-world record fee of £80million, and has enjoyed a remarkable six-year stay in the Spanish capital, breaking Madrid s all-time goalscoring record earlier this season.

However, speculation is mounting that the Portugal captain will leave Madrid next year, with Paris Saint-Germain thought to be at the head of the queue for his signature.

But, speaking after his side s 2-1 Premier League win at Watford on Saturday, Van Gaal indicated that United are keen on a reunion with Ronaldo.

Ronaldo plays on the wings and he is fast and scores goals, said the Dutchman.

There is no trainer in the world that doesn t like him.

Of course we are looking but are looking at all players, not just Ronaldo. But these players are mostly ungettable.

With Ronaldo, let s wait and hope.
