With the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo: who will be the captain of Manchester United?

Cristiano Ronaldo, after more than a decade away from England, has returned to Old Trafford, to show off his spectacular footballing skills. The Portuguese symbol for the 'red devils' fans, is one of the most experienced players in the squad but it is still too early to define who will wear the captain's armband this time, something he already did in his first stint.

The captaincy of Manchester United is a position that few players can dispute with the arrival of Cristiano to the Premier League. That is why it is worth reviewing which are the current captains at Manchester United, one of the classics of the domestic tournament.

With legends like Beckham, Rooney or Bobby Robson, the position of captain is a position that has a great prestige and that is why there will surely be a dispute to see who will be the captain of the 'red devils' team. 

Who will be Manchester United's captain?

At the moment, there is only one captain in the Old Trafford squad, and that is Harry Maguire. The former Leicester man, who is on his third win in Manchester, has settled in the team and already has the rank of captain in one of the historic clubs in the English league. Maguire is the reference point for his teammates, but it remains to be seen if with the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo he will be able to hold that position.

Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Old Trafford

After the third day of the Premier League, there will be a series of matches corresponding to the FIFA Date. This will give the teams a break, as the activity will restart on September 11. On that date, Manchester United will play at Old Trafford against Newcastle United. The perfect stage for Ronaldo to perform in front of his fans on his return to Manchester. CR7 has in his favor that he did the preseason with the Vecchia Signora and in fact played a few minutes at the start of the Serie A season.
