#3 The Pep Guardiola factor

Pep Guardiola's presence at the Etihad Stadium is another reason why Cristiano Ronaldo should consider leaving Juventus for Manchester City this summer. It goes without saying that the Spaniard has been the best manager in the game for well over a decade now.

Guardiola does a great job in terms of bringing out the best from his players. The likes of Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Kevin De Bruyne became world-class superstars under the Spaniard's tutelage. Working with such a legendary manager could do wonders to Cristiano Ronaldo, even at this stage of his career.

The City tactician has already built a fearsome team at the Etihad Stadium. All that's left is to have a player who could decide the fate of games single-handedly, and Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best in that respect. From many perspectives, the two parties need each other, making them a perfect match.


#2 Cristiano Ronaldo is no stranger to the Premier League

It is almost certain that Cristiano Ronaldo will become a dominant force in the Premier League if he joins Manchester City this summer. That's because the Portuguese knows what it takes to succeed in the English top flight, having impressed there during his stint at Manchester United more than a decade ago.

Ronaldo spent six years in the Premier League, recording an impressive 84 goals and 45 assists to his name in 196 appearances for the Red Devils. He also won three league titles, one Champions League, two Carling Cups, one FA Cup and his first Ballon d'Or award while he was at Old Trafford.

It would be a great sight for the fans to see the Portuguese running riot in the Premier League once again. He could surely be welcomed with open arms when he returns to the league from where his career literally took off.

#1 To win his 6th Ballon d’Or award

One thing that separates Cristiano Ronaldo from others is his determination to win all the time. Even though he already has five Ballon d'Or accolades in his cabinet, it is certain the Portuguese fancies his chances of claiming the coveted prize once again, especially as his eternal rival Lionel Messi has six such accolades to his name.

To win the Ballon d'Or award, one needs to have a solid team, a great manager with great tactics and players who are capable of delivering on the grandest of stages. Ronaldo will get all of that and more at Manchester City.

With Pep Guardiola running the show from the dugout and players like Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish exerting their dominance on the opposition, City have a winning combination. Add to that the likes of Bernardo Silva and Kyle Walker working tirelessly across the pitch and Ronaldo scoring upfront, the Cityzens could become an indomitable team in England and Europe for a while.
