According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo will be joined on the Old Trafford pitch by Manchester United legends Denis Law and Sir Bobby Charlton (pictured) ahead of Wednesday night's Champions League Group E clash with Danish side Aalborg.
The Portuguese winger is unlikely to be involved in the match, as he's struggling to overcome a hip injury. However, he'll still revel in the atmosphere, as Law and Charlton are set to poignantly hand the Ballon d'Or trophy over to the modern day Red Devils hero.
Both men were also named European Footballer of the Year during the 1960s, along with the late George Best, so by parading with the trophy Ronaldo will be symbolically joining the United elite.
United are set to hand 23-year-old Ronaldo a bumper contract extension in the near future, in order to shackle him and keep interested parties such as Inter and Real Madrid at bay.
When his win was confirmed in Paris, Ronaldo claimed that winning the gong was something he "dreamed of as a child."
