What if: Cristiano Ronaldo never left Manchester United

Cristiano Ronaldo wins his third Champions League

While this may come as a surprise for many, Cristiano Ronaldo has won more trophies in Manchester than in Madrid. He won nine trophies with Manchester United in just six years, most of them as a developing youngster while he has won only eight with the Los Blancos in seven seasons, at the peak of his career.

This is because Manchester United was one of the most dominant teams in the Premier League when he played for the Red Devils. Also, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid weren’t as good as they are today.

Although Real Madrid looks a better team, their chances of a League title and a Copa Del Rey have been hampered by the brilliance of Barcelona and Simeone's Atletico Madrid. Ronaldo has won two Champions Leagues, two Copa Del Reys and One La Liga in his seven years at Real Madrid.

Other trophies include a Spanish Super Cup, a FIFA Club World Cup, and a UEFA Super Cup. Its is certain that Ronaldo in his peak with Manchester United would have won many more trophies.
