Man Utd Transfers: 4 Players Moyes Could Have Signed With Rooney's Wages

1. Cristiano Ronaldo

So £82 million could potentially get Moyes three high quality players in areas of the pitch where United are in desperate need of improvement. Not bad when you consider how much the Old Trafford supremo forked out for the beleaguered Fellaini last summer. Our final choice represents a dream purchase, one player who would sweep all before him. Forget Kroos, Gundogan and Coleman. If United fans were given £85m to spend on another deal for Rooney or the opportunity to bring back Ronaldo, there is no doubt the majority would opt for the Portugese maverick. The current World Player of the Year left Manchester for Madrid in 2009 but it was evident from the reception he received on his return to Old Trafford last season that he is still adored by the club's fans. Unlike Rooney, Ronaldo hasn't tainted the fan's perception of him and remains one of the most popular players ever to leave Old Trafford. At the age of 29 it is doubtful his signature would cost as much as the £80m Madrid reportedly paid for him nearly 5 years ago. However, he has recently signed a new deal at the Bernabeu and any transfer is likely to be nothing more than wishful thinking.
