Ronaldo and De Gea to be honoured

De Gea will be presented with an award to mark his expected 500th appearance for Manchester United – making him only the 11th player to enter the exclusive ‘500 club’.

In a joint presentation before kick-off, Ronaldo will also receive an award from the club for his achievement in reaching 700 club goals over the course of his remarkable career.

Ronaldo notched his 700th club goal in our 2-1 Premier League win against Everton at Goodison Park last Sunday – bringing his total for Manchester United to 144.

According to FIFA records, only Austrian-Czech striker Josef Bican, who retired in 1957, has scored more than Ronaldo's 700 club goals.
