Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would not hide his delight at securing Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Red Devils legend is set to rejoin his old club, who he represented from 2003 to 2009, from Juventus.
United have already announced the move, but must clear his medical, visa, and contract details before he puts pen to paper on a two-year contract.
Speaking after his side's 1-0 win over Wolves in the Premier League on Sunday, Solskjaer explained how the move came about, stating: "That's football for you. Sometimes it happens.
"We've always been watching Cristiano. The one day he was going to move, we'd be interested.
"We never thought he was going to leave Juventus this season but when we did we had to speak to him, of course.
"Everyone that cares for Man United wanted this to happen and everyone played a part.
"But the biggest thing is that Cristiano wanted to come here."
