Manchester United fans’ obsession with plane-carried messages has just been cranked up a notch with their latest effort attempting to bring Cristiano Ronaldo back ‘home’ to Old Trafford.
The Real Madrid forward, who left United back in 2009 after six successful years with the club, is rumored to be contemplating a return to Manchester in the summer, and Red Devils fans are ramping up their efforts to seduce the Portuguese back with their latest airborne banner.
A United fans group have splashed out nearly £3,000 for a plane to fly over Real Madrid’s game with Villarreal on Saturday while carrying the message ‘Come home Ronaldo’.
The group’s founder, Oli Grandidge, said: ‘We have active supporters on every continent of the world and we are all united by our love for Cristiano both as a football player and as a person.
‘We won’t stop until we bring Ronaldo home.
‘Members from all over the world have donated their own money and resources to fund a mid game message, flown by plane, in a bid to demonstrate to Cristiano Ronaldo how much the United faithful still love and support him.’
United fans have previously flown a banner over Old Trafford in a bid to force David Moyes out of the club.
