Manchester United Treble winner Nicky Butt is happy seeing Cristiano Ronaldo return to the club.
Butt has recalled how former manager Sir Alex Ferguson signed the Portuguese.
He told Ladbrokes: "We played a game in pre-season against Sporting Lisbon (in 2003), and we'd just travelled from Chicago to Portugal.
"We'd got off the plane, had a bite to eat, we were all completely knackered, and we'd got onto the pitch and this young kid was just electrifying.
"We were all just looking at him and thinking 'wow'.
"We were all making excuses after the game; we were tired, it was a rubbish game, and we ended up sat on the team coach for about three hours after the game.
"Everyone is getting annoyed because we just want to go, but it turns out the manager and David Gill were in the stadium pretty much signing Cristiano Ronaldo there and then."
