Probably waiting to see if they can sort out this #7 thing first for the promo stuff.
Cristiano Ronaldo - Man Utd Player

Yeah I have no problem with him considering other clubs, including our rivals. Glad he joined us, and can hopefully lead us to great things!
Where is the lazy bugger?
Apparently our numbers are already registered with the EPL so Cristiano cannot get 7.
Cavani alaready played with #7 yesterday. Dont think we have enough reason to convince FA to change the numbers now?
One West Ham player got it changed after it was registered so its not impossible.
SIGNED
Confirmation of medical!
- Personal terms have been agreed for a two-year contract.
- Manchester United have inserted a one-year option on the deal
- The required aspects of the deal will be finalised before the deadline, while the Visa process is ongoing.
Aaargh thanks. Didn't know that. Still don't think we will take 7 from Cavani.
Will be disappointed if there aren't reports of him "having the body of a 20-something" following his medical
Apparently Cavani is willing to give up the #7. A special request needs to be put forward to the PL. It has never been done before apparently but it can be done. I think its beneficial for everyone providing Cavani is okay with switching. The CR7 brand is huge.
Our away end was buzzing after the goal yesterday. Sounded amazing on the telly with the "viva Ronaldo". Anyone got a decent clip on that?
Might as well clip the whole game, away fans were fantastic.
Brilliant, I could see him playing another 3 years easily.
Given that PSG broke their record in social media with Messi's announcement I hope we do a bigger one for CR7. Has the potential to be the biggest ever in sports. Hope these guys make it worth it
3 years takes him to Euro 2024.
The instagram and twitter post have already broken the record for most likes from a sports club.
Ronaldo's own instagram post will probably break the most likes in a sports related post(currently held by Messi).
We have already blew them out of the water.
12.9 million likes on Instagram for United since Friday vs 7.5 million for PSG.
Keep it simple. We all saw how Sanchez and his piano ended up.
I know, the confirmation and unveiling is what I meant. I see another record post for the club and player.
Naa, boy is returning home. Just make it big.
Is he at Carrington for the contract signing? Article says he's completed his medical AT Manchester United
I read that the medical was scheduled to be done in Portugal.
He's in Lisbon.
It's poor wording. It should say 'for Manchester United'
Maybe he'll fly back here for the announcement/unveiling and then fly back. Or we'll do the unveiling after the international games.
Still a great intro jingle though. Useful for marketing collateral.
Those are views. I don't know the record for that, but the post has got 15.5m likes.
I think his United post will have 30m likes. Maybe more.
It’s a good job we have international break so he should be sorted and signed for when we get back. He has to sort his visa out which I dunno how long that will take but it took Varane a while didn’t it.
Agreed, if it's possible and Cavani doesn't mind - it would be great.
No it's in Lisbon and he's staying there to join up with the Portugal squad this week. We won't see him at Carrington until after the international break.
So none of you UK residents wont be allowed to see his first match vs Newcastle on the tv ?
Portugal has a match on the 1st, so it would really have to be today. Otherwise, we'll see an announcement whilst he's away like how Pogba did with Lukaku. Maybe we'll see something with Bruno and Ronaldo.
Cavani likely won't mind.
I doubt we'd force him to change numbers, but he'll give it up knowing Ronaldo's history with the number at the club.
The Premier League won't decline the request.
Probably won't happen then.
Guessing we'll do everything once the Portugal games are all done.

I thought the same. I think he knows he is leaving, or doesn't like not being the main man.
He spoke about it with De Gea in the post-match presser. He's happy.
He's going nowhere and Pogba already wasn't the main man in the team.
He posted on twitter after the win.
Cue Klopp moaning about it after.
Agreed. I hope he just walks out first against Newcastle, with Sir Alex and the coaching staff waiting for him (and the rest of the lads) on the pitch.
I was gonna say it’ll be moved but I don’t think it can with the CL game mid week.So none of you UK residents wont be allowed to see his first match vs Newcastle on the tv ?
This could be the most illegally streamed game in the history of UK tv.
