A spokesman for United's owners, the Glazer family, has told the BBC that the decision to sell Ronaldo was taken by solely by manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
The spokesman said: "It was purely a football decision and had nothing to do with the financial structure of the club."
It is understood that the transfer fee would be made available for Ferguson to invest in the transfer market.
