Manchester United will do all they can to bring back Cristiano Ronaldo, by the start of the new season.
Manager Jose Mourinho is determined to get his transfer business done early this summer, as he seeks to assemble a squad that will contest for the title next season.
The Red Devils signed Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan by July 6 last year.
Paul Pogba’s summer-long transfer saga was finalised just 34 days later.
The Manchester Evening News reports that any potential deal to sign Ronaldo, must be completed by the start of the new season, as Mourinho is reluctant to let business drag right up to the deadline.
Mourinho is believed to have handed United’s chief executive Ed Woodward his list of targets back in March. Woodward has already completed one deal, bringing in Victor Lindelof from Benfica, and are close to signing Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid.
The squad is schedueld to reassemble at Carrington on July 8.
