The mother of Cristiano Ronaldo will be at Old Trafford for Manchester United's clash with Newcastle United.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskajer has confirmed Ronaldo will play on Saturday.

Ronaldo's mum, Maria Dolores, is keen not to miss her son's homecoming in front of a full capacity Old Trafford.

Dolores shared a photo of herself flying to Manchester with a wide grin etched across her face.

"On the way to Manchester, kisses everyone," she wrote.

Ronaldo has previously admitted he doesn't allow his mum to watch big games that he's involved in, but he might have made an exception to that rule for this occasion.

"She's not allowed now to watch big games," Ronaldo has said.

"I say, 'Listen, I don't have a father anymore. I don't want to lose my mum, too, so you're not going to watch the quarter-finals, semi-finals, or finals. She gets so nervous, I don't understand why. She is not allowed now to watch big games."
