Arsene Wenger has revealed that his biggest regret in football is missing out on the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo before the Portuguese star sealed a deal with Manchester United.
The then 18-year-old signed for Sir Alex Ferguson's side from Sporting Lisbon in 2003, but Wenger believes he was 'so close' to getting there before United.
Speaking to Arsenal's official smartphone sponsor, Huawei, Wenger said: 'My biggest regret, I was so close, to signing Cristiano Ronaldo, and not only did I not get him he signed for Manchester United, so that of course still hurts today.'
