12 years later he will be wearing the red jersey again. But is number seven on Cristiano Ronaldo’s jersey? That is not possible under the rules of the Premier League. The season has begun, with Manchester United’s number seven jersey owned by Edison Cavani. This means that the chances of seeing CR7 this season are very low.
Premier League rules state that each player on the team must register with a jersey number before the start of the season. Only if someone leaves the club that season can someone else wear that footballer’s jersey. According to the rules, Ronaldo will have to wear another number jersey as Cavani wears Manchester United’s number seven jersey.
So far, EPL authorities have not changed this rule. Only time will tell if Ronaldo will change the rules. Manchester United have no plans to release Cavani. So the chances of Ronaldo getting the number seven jersey are very slim. Ronaldo wore the number 27 jersey at his childhood club Sporting Lisbon. Do you see him returning to the old club 12 years later wearing that number jersey?
Ronaldo missed Juventus’ lessons in Manchester. He was initially announced to be joining Manchester City, but Manchester United announced on Friday that the Portuguese star would be joining their squad. Ronaldo’s old picture and video soon spread on the net. After the number seven jersey, he can be seen scoring one goal after another. CR7 takes the opposition by storm. This image may not be seen this season.
