Cristiano Ronaldo 's relationship with Erik ten Hag has turned frosty in recent days but it isn't anything new after the forward questioned the Manchester United manager's training methods.
The Portuguese star stormed off at Old Trafford after refusing to come on as a late substitute in United's 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening. Ten Hag subsequently decided to drop Ronaldo for the Red Devils' 1-1 draw at Chelsea at the weekend, and revealed he would fine the forward two weeks' wages.
It accumulated in Ronaldo training alone on Thursday and Friday as he tries to force himself back into Ten Hag's plans before the World Cup begins in November. Despite Ten Hag claiming he wants Ronaldo to stay at United for the remainder of the season, it is understood there is a willingness to allow the forward to leave in January.
