Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been accused of "strange" treatment of Cristiano Ronaldo by former player Luke Chadwick.
Ronaldo, 37, wanted to depart the Red Devils this summer after just one season back at United following his high-profile return from Juventus last year, but this ambition was not realised as he remained at Old Trafford.
The Portuguese superstar was left "upset" at seeing his pay slashed at Man United after each member of the squad was hit with a 25 per cent cut to their weekly wage due to the club's failure to qualify for the Champions League. Yet Ronaldo was unable to secure an exit, with no club willing to meet his wage demands and guarantee him regular football.
