Ronaldo returned to Manchester United in August on a two-year contract, with an option for an extension, for an initial £12.86m fee.
So far this campaign, the Portuguese has made seven Premier League appearances, netting four times while assisting once including a late winner against Atalanta.
“I can only say that he’s an extraordinary player but that sounds too banal,” said Gasperini.
“What he’s doing again at Manchester, you only have to look at his goal on Saturday (against Tottenham) and the others he’s already scored, he’s an incredible goalscoring machine.”
The Atalanta boss said even if it cost his club goals “I’d prefer that he’d stayed in Italy because you always want to see the best players here”.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men sit top of Group F on six points after two wins and a draw.
