Cristiano Ronaldo’s entry to Manchester United postponed the Sporting fans’ dream of a possible return for the star to Alvalada. Even so, hope extends to other people, especially … the mother of national team captain Dolores Aveiro, who, in the ‘ADN de Leão’ podcast, ensures that this is indeed his “greatest wish before he dies”.
“Ronaldo has to come back here, he will be here for me. He enjoys watching Sporting games. I already told him: “Son, before I die, I want to see you return to Sporting.” “…”, – he said. But if it is not, then it is Cristianino! At his age, he plays better than Ronaldo. At the time, Ronaldo did not have a coach, but today Ronaldo is his son’s teacher. “Daddy, When we move to Lisbon, I want to play for Sporting. Now it all starts in Manchester. It was my dream to see the two of them together at Sporting, it was amazing, ”he admitted in a conversation with comedian Guilherme Geyrinhas. In this regard, Dolores sent a “message” to the current owner of the 7 in Alvalada, Tabata. “Today number 7 belongs to Tabata … for now. When Ronaldo comes, he will be his! ”He joked.
“Ronaldo, who comes here, makes up for it by selling shirts. In Manchester, it was crazy! ”Dolores admits, also talking about the conversation with her son about rumors that connect him with Manchester … City, the rival of the red devils. “They talked about Manchester City on TV, but he told me, ‘Mom, don’t worry about what they say, because I’m going to Manchester (United).’ I said that I really liked it. And he did it. To see the stadium filled with 75 thousand people, to sing his name was a great excitement, ”he admits.
