Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has told Cristiano Ronaldo it is "unacceptable" for him to leave games early after his Old Trafford departure on Sunday afternoon.
The veteran forward, 37, walked out of Old Trafford before the end of United's friendly against Rayo Vallecano, which finished 1-1. He was brought off at the interval - ending his first appearance of pre-season - and was pictured leaving the stadium before full-time along with defender Diogo Dalot, who played no part in the game.
Ten Hag's comments contradict the club's stance on the matter after they confirmed they had 'no issue' with Ronaldo leaving Old Trafford. It also suggests the Portuguese superstar's ongoing transfer saga is causing problems for the new United boss.
