'He knew the consequences' - Erik ten Hag hits back at Cristiano Ronaldo over Manchester United exit

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has accused Cristiano Ronaldo of double-crossing him by engineering his departure from the club and claimed the Portuguese was not in "good shape".

Ten Hag did not speak to Ronaldo after his sit-down with Piers Morgan aired and revealed the 37-year-old never had the decency to tell him in person that he wanted to leave United.
