Cristiano Ronaldo will wear the number seven shirt for Manchester United, the club has confirmed.

The 36-year-old takes the number, which he wore in his first stint at Old Trafford, from Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani - who moves to number 21.

Ronaldo has thanked Cavani for the incredible gesture.

A mark of the man ❤️@ECavaniOfficial 🤝 @Cristiano #MUFC

Ronaldo completed a shock move back to Old Trafford on transfer deadline day and is in line to make his second debut for the Red Devils against Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday, 11 September.

Ronaldo will begin training with the Reds when he has completed five days isolation.
