While players across Europe are happy to be back with their team-mates to begin preparations for the new season, Cristiano Ronaldo is delighted to be reunited with another familiar face.
The Real Madrid star has enjoyed a lavish summer holiday, meeting Jennifer Lopez and lying in the sun with beautiful women.

But the European champion was all smiles as he received kisses from one of the loves of his life... his dog.
Ronaldo posted a picture on Instagram of him holding his dog as he relaxes by a swimming pool, with the caption: "My baby miss me."
The Portugal ace is still on holiday after winning Euro 2016 with his country.
