Manchester United: Could Cristiano Ronaldo overtake Wayne Rooney as record goal scorer for the Red Devils?

Cristiano Ronaldo is rumoured to be on the brink of leaving Real Madrid, with Manchester United heading a list of clubs who could snap up the Ballon d'Or winner.

The Portuguese superstar starred for the Red Devils between 2003 and 2009, but took his game to another level after joining Madrid for a world record fee.

At the Bernabeu, Ronaldo has scored a remarkable 406 goals in 394 games, flying past the previous record of 323 set by Raul (in 741 games).

Meanwhile, at Old Trafford, his old team-mate Wayne Rooney has become Man United's record goal scorer, reaching 253 in 559 games, four clear of Sir Bobby Charlton.
