Cristiano Ronaldo transfer: Manchester United talks, Chelsea claim, Erik ten Hag verdict

When Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Manchester United many fans hoped it would be the dream reunion, but in recent weeks it has turned into a nightmare. Since the appointment of Erik ten Hag the forward has seen his role in the side significantly reduced and now his future is uncertain.

The situation came to a head against Tottenham Hotspur where Ronaldo refused to be substituted on in the 89th minute and then was filmed walking down the tunnel and reportedly he also left Old Trafford. As punishment United's number seven was dropped from the subsequent squad against Chelsea and not allowed to train with the rest of the squad.

The MEN understands that Ronaldo is set to meet Ten Hag on Tuesday about his immediate and potentially long-term future. But of course the situation has completely dominated the zeitgeist, with the manager, ex-players and pundits all having their say on the situation.
