Erik Ten Hag has confirmed that he will include Cristiano Ronaldo in the Manchester United squad till the end of the season. The Portugal captain left Old Trafford early after refusing to come on in the 89th minute against Spurs. 

And as a result, he was left out for the game against Chelsea and was also asked to train alone. Ten Hag also ruled out a departure for the veteran during the January transfer window. 

Erik Ten Hag confirms Cristiano Ronaldo won’t leave United in January 

“It [dropping Ronaldo] is for this game and then we continue. It’s a strike. As we said in the statement, Cristiano remains an important part of the squad and I count on him for the rest of the season. We want to fulfil our ambitions.”

Erik Ten Hag earlier confirmed reports Ronaldo refused to come on against Spurs and said: “What (happened in) the talk is between Cristiano and me. The (club) statement is also clear.

“I am the manager, I’m responsible for the top sport culture here and I have to set standards and values, and I have to control them. We are in a team.

“After Rayo Vallecano I said it’s unacceptable but he wasn’t the only one. That is for everyone, when it’s the second time it will have consequence. That is now what we did. We’ll miss him tomorrow, it’s a miss for the squad but I think it’s important for the attitude, mentality for the group.”
