Manchester United clinched Ronaldo signing in Lineker's garden
Manchester United clinched the dramatic signing of Cristiano Ronaldo on deadline day of the summer transfer window, and it has now been revealed the details were confirmed in the garden of English football legend Gary Lineker.
The return of the legendary Portuguese forward sent Red Devils fans into bedlam but few could've imagined how it actually transpired.
"I'll put my cards on the table - Ed Woodward is a good friend of mine and lives next door," Lineker said on the Match of the Day podcast.
"He signed Cristiano Ronaldo when he was in my garden! When he walked in he was on the phone to Jorge Mendes - I hope I'm not giving too much away.
"I have a fantastic picture of him sat on the phone to him which I might share one day with his permission."
