Where will Ronaldo play for United?
The Red Devils were looking for a long-term replacement for 34-year-old Edinson Cavani in the transfer market but instead have gone on to sign Ronaldo in the summer. The ex-Real Madrid star is no longer a tricky winger with loads of skills in his bag pack likes his younger self and turned more of a striker in over the last few years.
