EKO HOT BLOG gathered that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealed that he regrets bringing Cristiano Ronaldo back to Manchester United last summer.

The Portugal international had been expected to join Manchester City from Juventus instead. However, he ended up sealing a Hollywood homecoming after 12 years away from the club.

But, when it became apparent Ronaldo could end up at Manchester City, the Red Devils decided to take action.

United brought the veteran back to Old Trafford, believing his return could help them challenge the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League table.

Yet while Ronaldo notched an impressive 24 goals across all competitions, The Times say Solskjaer regretted bringing the 37-year-old back.
