It’s clear! Ronaldo will have seven again, who will kick the penalty?
When Cristiano Ronaldo arrived at Manchester United, many wondered what number he would wear on his jersey, since Edinson Cavani wears number seven? He will certainly leave it on, but will Bruno Fernandes, who plays penalty kicks, do the same?

Ronaldo and the number 7, it just goes together. That’s also why, after his arrival, the question came up whether he would wear it at Manchester United.
Edinson Cavani wore this number last season. He will meet the Portuguese star, but nothing is as simple as it may seem.
It’s not as if he just takes a different number and is done. The club has to make an application to the Premier League. A request that the league will surely grant. What about Cavani?
He’ll take number 21. That’s what Daniel James wore last season when he went on loan to Leeds. And Cavani himself wears this number for the national team.
What about the penalty kicks? Fernandes is a specialist, but he will leave them to Ronaldo out of respect for him. He was a big fan himself.
Today, he can play with him not only in the national team, but also in the club. So we can expect to see no tug of war during the game.
