A joyful moment for Madridistas, as the King, Cristiano Ronaldo named in Real Madrid’s squad against Manchester United.

Ronaldo had returned to training with Real Madrid as defending European champions are set to face the Red Devils in UEFA Super Cup clash in Skopje.

Ronaldo's summer has been overshadowed by accusations of tax evasion in Spain, which led to him being charged in a court near Madrid last week, while he was handed an extended summer break by his club after playing for Portugal at the Confederations Cup.

"He needed to rest. He has had his holidays and that was important," said Zidane of the man whose two goals helped propel Madrid to a 4-1 victory over Juventus in the Champions League final in Cardiff two months ago.

That victory saw Real become the first club to retain the trophy in the Champions League era and completed a glorious campaign in which they also won La Liga.
