Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was one of those responsible for Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United in 2021, but three years on he assumes the decision to bring back the Portuguese striker was probably a mistake. And it says more: Signing the Portuguese from Juventus was almost a commitment… I don't even see CR7 wearing the rival City shirt and scoring more than Erling Haaland. “Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the best players in the world in the last 15 years. I played with him and he played for Manchester United. He had a history at the club and he was leaving Juventus. But we couldn't give him to Manchester City.” Because he will probably end up scoring more goals than Erling Haaland has now, which is why I spoke to him. We managed to convince him to go to Manchester United, but I think that affected the whole dressing room, the whole dynamic. “It's important, because one of the biggest stars in the world had just arrived, he did things well, he was top scorer that year, with 24 goals or something like that, but I ended up leaving after 10 weeks.” Devils coach during the Oslo Business Forum.
