Cristiano Ronaldo will not take part in the challenge against Chelsea

The relationship between Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United is increasingly at loggerheads: in fact, the Portuguese has been banned by Erik Ten Hag after what happened in the Red Devils’ Premier League match on Wednesday, October 19, against Antonio Conte’s Tottenham.

In fact, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, in the match against Spurs, remained on the bench for the entire duration of the match and at the 89th decided not to wait for the triple whistle before heading to the locker room.

After the 2-0 victory, the Red Devils’ coach had not spoken, warning that he would deal with the matter the following day.

Manchester United’s stance was not long in coming. Here is the statement that appeared on the club’s official website, “Cristiano Ronaldo will not take part in the upcoming league match that will see Manchester United engaged on Saturday at Chelsea’s field.”

Thus, a January separation between Ronaldo and the club with which the Portuguese won the Champions League in 2008 seems increasingly likely.
