Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo jerseys have set a new record for the fastest selling shirt in Premier League history online.

In the first 72 hours after United officially confirmed Ronaldo's return to the famous jersey, which was made possible by Edinson Cavani, sales of the 'Ronaldo 7' shirt hit £68.1 million.

Following the departure of Dan James, the Uruguayan will now wear the number 21 shirt, which he has worn for his country for the past ten years.

After he left the club in 2009 to join Real Madrid for a world-record £80 million deal, the Red Devils have now recouped half of the £12.9 million cost they paid Juventus to lure Ronaldo back to Old Trafford (£6.81 million commission on Ronaldo shirt sales rise).

Manchester United's new home shirts are presently selling at a 13 percent increase year over year. The club's sales have increased as a result of the signings of Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho, and Raphael Varane.
