Manchester United fans are livid as Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester City gathers steam

Manchester United fans are livid as club legend Cristiano Ronaldo nears a move to arch-rivals Manchester City this summer, as stated in a report by ESPN.

The Portuguese legend spent six glorious years at Old Trafford and to this day remains a favourite amongst the Red Devils crowd. With his contract at Juventus winding down, it remains to be seen if he has played his last game for the Italians.
