Manchester United have confirmed Cristiano Ronaldo will not be involved against Liverpool this evening.
The 37-year-old last night shared the tragic news of his baby son's death, promoting thousands of messages of support being sent his way, and the player has requested privacy at this challenging time.
Writing on social media, Ronaldo posted the following message yesterday: “It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that our baby boy has passed away. It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel. Only the birth of our baby girl gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness.
