The law may deprive Ronaldo from the number 7 in Manchester United.
Portuguese football sensation, Cristiano Ronaldo, returning to Manchester United, may not be able to wear his usual number 7. The reason is that the law of the English Premier League prevents changing jersey numbers after the season kicks off, even if Edinson Cavani, current holder of the number gave up on wearing it.
Manchester United will need to submit an official request to the League with valid reasons - or, Ronaldo must wait for Cavani's departure from the "Red Devils" during the winter transfer market so that he can have his number 7 back. Until the decision has been made, the Portuguese might be wearing two different numbers this season.
It is noteworthy that English giant Manchester United announced Ronaldo's return 12 years after leaving the club.
