Gary Neville has told Cristiano Ronaldo he ought to meet with Manchester United chiefs and Erik ten Hag to try and orchestrate an exit for himself in January.
The attacker was dropped for Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea after heading down the Old Trafford tunnel before the end of the game with Tottenham on Wednesday after being benched. He has since been training on his own.
He took to Instagram last week to release a statement, in which he admitted “the heat of the moment” got to him and recommitted his support for the squad. Erik ten Hag said he would speak to Ronaldo before deciding whether to infiltrate him back into the fold.
