Gentleman Cavani gave Ronaldo his beloved number! The fans are ecstatic!

Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani made a beautiful gesture. He gave his number 7 to the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo, who is returning home. What did Ronaldo say to his teammate and how are the fans reacting?

This transfer window will be one of the most significant in football history. The fact that two football icons, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, have changed jerseys would be enough in itself.

But they have been joined by a host of other transfers that remain in the huge shadow of the two legends named above. Just remember when Manchester United brought in Jadon Sancho or the great defender Raphael Varane.

Thanks to Ronaldo, that has been completely forgotten. This is simply a sensation and if it is a sensation, it has to be with everything! The question was what number the star Portuguese would play with.

His beloved number seven was striker Edinson Cavani. But he’s going to give it to him in a gentlemanly manner and take the number 21!

“I wasn’t sure if it would be possible to have the number 7 again. That’s why I want to thank you so much for this incredible gesture, Edi,” Cristiano Ronaldo said to Cavani.

This situation has angered fans to different reactions! Some welcome Cavani’s beautiful gesture and are happy. Others are spreading hatred and again comparing Messi and Ronaldo’s behaviour!

In fact, Lionel Messi gave the number 10 to Neymar at PSG and took the number 30 himself. They compare Ronaldo’s regaining the number seven to a robbery.

Other fans are sad that they recently bought a new United jersey with Cavani’s name tag and the number 7. After only a few weeks/days, the jersey is essentially old.
