Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo will wear Manchester United's iconic No. 7 again after Edinson Cavani agreed to surrender the shirt.
Ronaldo followed in a long list of United legends to have worn No. 7 during his first spell with United from 2003 to 2009.
Ronaldo, 36, rejoined United from Juventus last week, but Cavani had the No. 7 at the start of this season, raising the possibility of Ronaldo having to don a different shirt.
But Cavani has agreed to swap to 21, the number the veteran striker wears for Uruguay.
