Cristiano Ronaldo might have ignored his mother's plea by following his agent's advice and rejoining Manchester United.
The Portuguese star's mum, Dolores Aveiro, has always dreamed to see his son returning to Sporting Lisbon.
Ronaldo joined Sporting at the age of 12, where he first caught the attention of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Talks over a Portugal return came up earlier this year when Sporting won their first Premier Liga title since 2002 as his mother chatting celebrating fans.
Speaking to supporters as they celebrated their league triumph, his mother said:
"I’ll talk to him [Cristiano] to bring him back. Next year he will play in Alvalade [Sporting's stadium].
However, Jorge Mendes was quick to silence those hopes, with the Portuguese club unlikely to be able to pay the amount of money Cristiano will be earning at Old Trafford.
