Ronaldo completed the shocking 100m-euro transfer to Juventus after deciding to end his nine-year stay in Real Madrid.
When speculations of his departure in the summer begin to surface, clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and former Manchester United Club would lead the 33-year-old race.
At the time, Maria Dolores Aveiro told the SRF Sport he would prefer Ronaldo to return to England.
She, however, has acknowledged that an emotional return to England has never been possible, with five times the winner of the Golden Ball making the best decision available by choosing Italy for a new beginning.
The return to Manchester has not been possible, but we will support it”, Aveiro told reporters after Ronaldo's presentation as Juvenus player.
“This is a new stage in his life and I believe he is happy, as we are all family”, she added.
