Cristiano Ronaldo will reportedly undergo his medical in Lisbon on Sunday ahead of completing his stunning return to Manchester United from Juventus.

Cristiano Ronaldo will reportedly undergo his Manchester United medical in Lisbon on Sunday.

The Red Devils confirmed the 36-year-old's remarkable return to Old Trafford on Friday, just hours after unexpectedly leapfrogging cross-town rivals Manchester City in a dramatic race for his signature.

While Man United have agreed a fee of £12.8m up front and around £6.9m in add-ons, certain elements of the deal do still need to be completed before Ronaldo's return becomes official.

The Portugal international must gain a visa, finalise personal terms and complete a medical before Tuesday's 11pm deadline, and Sky Sports News reports that the latter will be ticked off the list this weekend.

Ronaldo is currently in Lisbon after flying there on a private jet from Turin on Friday, shortly after it was confirmed that he had asked to leave Juventus.

Gaining a visa and agreeing personal terms are not expected to be significant hurdles in the way of the deal being finalised, with Ronaldo expected to put pen to paper on a two-year deal in the North-West.

Recent reports have suggested that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner will be taking a pay cut of around £6m to complete the move, although he is still set to become the highest-paid player in Premier League history.

Ronaldo scored 118 goals in 292 appearances during his first spell at Man United between 2003 and 2009.
