| Cristiano Ronaldo is on his way back to United |
NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you the latest news from Old Trafford
Manchester United are confident of seeing off Chelsea in their bid to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese star looks set to leave Real Madrid this season.
And reports yesterday claimed Chelsea were keen on the 30-year-old.
Roman Abramovich wants Ronaldo to add some sparkle to his side.
But according to the Sun United believe he will return to Old Trafford.
Ronaldo played at United for six years, leaving for a world record fee, and has never hidden his admiration for the club.
United are plotting a move for Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup.
Ozyakup is a former Arsenal youth team captain having spent four years with the Gunners before joining Besiktas in 2012.
He made one senior appearance for Arsene Wenger's side - providing an assist in a 3-1 win over Shrewsbury in the League Cup - while he was an unused substitute for the 8-2 Premier League defeat to Manchester United.
He left the Gunners for £370,000 but would now cost around £15million after becoming a key player in Turkey.
The Chelsea manager is under fire at Stamford Bridge but he would be welcome back in Spain, according to the club's former president.
Ramon Calderon told talkSPORT: "It is not a secret that the current Real Madrid president has backed Mourinho many times.
"He likes him a lot and you can't rule out seeing him again on the bench at the Bernabeu.
"I know it seems strange, but if Benitez doesn't have a good season and Mourinho gets sacked by Chelsea, I insist you can't rule out seeing him here again.
"I know that the president tried to have him here instead of Benitez, but Mourinho said he didn't want it and that it wasn't the right time to come back.
"But after two or three years I can see him here again - it happened the same with Chelsea, they sacked him but then he came back. In football that is normal.
"The current president has a lot of interest in Mourinho, he backed him a lot during his time at Madrid and Mourinho is his favourite coach."
