As United confirmed Ronaldo will wear No 7 last week, fans dashed online to secure a replica and it only took four hours to smash the record as the highest daily sale on a single sports merchandise site outside North America.
Fanatics, United's official retail partner, confirmed the shirt sales hit record figures and the first hour alone bettered the best full day of global sales for the club's online store.
Ronaldo is expected to feature for United against Newcastle at 2am on Sunday.
