Sporting CP plans of re-signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United has been played down.

Ronaldo, off contract in June, has been linked with a return to Sporting, where coach Ruben Amorim has opened the door.

However, ELEVEN's Duarte Monteiro said: “No one really believes in it.

"For supporters, this story falls more into the 'fantasy' category.

"This is also why it is difficult to assess what Sporting fans think of a possible return."
