Erik ten Hag confirms length of Cristiano Ronaldo suspension from Man Utd squad

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo's suspension from first-team action is only for this weekend's away clash at Chelsea.

The Dutchman has taken action against the 37-year-old forward after he stormed down the Old Trafford tunnel without permission at the tail-end of Wednesday night's victory over Tottenham. Ten Hag later confirmed that Ronaldo had first refused to come on as a substitute before his temper tantrum took attention away from a dominant United display.

Grilled on whether Ronaldo would return to the fold in the games that follow the trip to Stamford Bridge, Ten Hag told Sky Sports: "Yes, I think it [his suspension] is only for this weekend, this match and then we will talk and we will see."
