Cristiano Ronaldo is on course to make his second Manchester United debut against Newcastle United on Sept. 11 after being released from the Portugal squad six days earlier than originally scheduled following his world record goals against Republic of Ireland on Wednesday.
Ronaldo, who completed a €15 million transfer from Juventus to United on Monday, moved clear of former Iran striker Ali Daei as the all-time leading goalscorer in international football by scoring his 110th and 111th goals for Portugal in the 2-1 World Cup qualifying win against Ireland in Faro.
