Cristiano Ronaldo has said he has been “overwhelmed” by the good luck messages after securing his return to Manchester United.
Ronaldo’s return to Old Trafford was rubber-stamped by the Premier League club just after 9.30am on Tuesday.
United said Ronaldo had signed a two-year deal with the option of a third, subject to international clearance.
Juve have now confirmed United are paying £12.86m for Ronaldo plus £6.86m in potential add-ons, in a statement released early on transfer deadline day.
Ronaldo said: “Manchester United is a club that has always had a special place in my heart, and I have been overwhelmed by all the messages I have received since the announcement on Friday. 
“I cannot wait to play at Old Trafford in front of a full stadium and see all the fans again. 

“I’m looking forward to joining up with the team after the international games. And I hope we have a very successful season ahead.”
Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer added: “You run out of words to describe Cristiano. He is not only a marvellous player, but also a great human being. To have the desire and the ability to play at the top level for such a long period requires a very special person.

“I have no doubt that he will continue to impress us all and his experience will be so vital for the younger players in the squad. Ronaldo’s return demonstrates the unique appeal of this club. And I am absolutely delighted he is coming home to where it all started.”
