CRISTIANO RONALDO EXCLUSIVE: Watch the moment agent Jorge Mendes agrees to allow Manchester United to sign the Portuguese teenager

It was the moment that changed football history - Cristiano Ronaldo's agent was assured he would play a big part at Manchester United.

Jorge Mendes reveals all in the forthcoming film about the Portugal and Real Madrid superstar, saying that United manager Sir Alex Ferguson guaranteed him that Ronaldo would play at least 50 per cent of United's matches.

This signalled the green light for Ronaldo's £12.24m transfer from Sporting Lisbon to Old Trafford 12 years ago, as as seen in the clip above.
