Ronaldo’s girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez enjoys final rays of sun before trading yachts for Manchester – but what awaits?

CRISTIANO RONALDO has agreed to return to Manchester United, 12 years on from leaving Old Trafford.

This time around, the Portuguese will be flanked by partner Georgina Rodriguez and their four kids.

Cristiano and Georgina love to lounge on their yacht

Ronaldo, 36, will surely remember his favourite spots from before his 2009 Old Trafford departure.

But what will Georgina get up to, now that her luxury yacht will be over 1,000 miles away?

WHAT SHE’S GIVING UP

Georgina, 27, has already gushed over Ronaldo’s move on Instagram, posting an image of the transfer’s announcement and filling it with heart emojis.

But, while Manchester itself is a great city, she is about give up the incredible weather that she is used to in Italy.

Despite all its good points, the North West of England is not known for its sunshine.

Stunning Georgina also likes to chill in the pool

And if Instagram is anything to go by, taking in the sun’s rays is one of Georgina’s favourite pastimes.

She can often be seen working out in the sunshine, or enjoying some time in the pool.

And she loves to lounge alongside Cristiano on their luxury yacht off the coast of Italy.

Donning one of her array of stunning bikinis, she’s also partial to a dip in the sea – or even taking a jet ski out for a whirl.

Captioned ‘summer’, Georgina posted an image of herself relaxing by the pool in the garden yesterday.

But the ability to do that is very much about to change…

While life in Manchester can’t offer the glorious sunshine, footballers and their Wags still find plenty to do.

Many players at United and City like to live in the sleepy Cheshire village of Alderley Edge, around 12 miles away from Manchester itself.

Footballers’ partners will go and enjoy tasteful lunches in the village.

While others enjoy shopping in the city centre.

Anthony Martial and wife Melanie have even been known to be partial to a bit of bowling.

While there are also decent nightspots to visit if they fancy a night out.

Perhaps Georgina and Cristiano could even go to Rosso for an evening, with the restaurant and bar owned by CR7’s pal Rio Ferdinand.
