Manchester United great Cristiano Ronaldo has told his Juventus team-mate Paulo Dybala he must move to Old Trafford to become a champion.
Following Dybala's return to Turin on Thursday, he asked for Ronaldo's advice in the players' WhatsApp ground over the potential move to Old Trafford, a deal which would see Romleu Lukaku move the other way.
Ronaldo is understood to have approved of Dybala's move to Manchester, citing that he became a 'champion' during his trophy-laden six-year stint at the club.
It is a resounding endorsement for United and could be the biggest step yet in their move to capture the talented 25-year-old Argentina international.
Dybala's time at Juventus is over and Paulo looks for the right reasons. He will do it elsewhere and according to the advice of Cristiano Ronaldo Manchester is the best place for him.
Ronaldo's seal of approval will help quell any feelings of doubt held by Dybala — it is understood he would prefer to be playing Champions League football — while also helping to facilitate Lukaku's Old Trafford exit.
Sportsmail understands Dybala is now ready to accept United's offer and once again, 10 years after he left the club, United will have to offer their gratitude to one of their greatest ever players.

Well i see lots of idi*tic fans here who suddenly questioned who is ronaldo? Is he an agent? Who he thinks he is? And not surprisingly,80% of these idi*ts are barca fans. Of course.lol. These idi**ts couldnt even read properly where it clearly stated that dybala asked for ronaldo’s advice about the swap deal and ronaldo just offerered his advice. It wasnt like ronaldp said that out of nowhere,he just tryin to help his teammate when he was asked for his advice. What a bunch of idi**ts really. Please understand carefully before u write somethin,please,really. Am tired of all these idi**tic nonsense.
