Cristiano Ronaldo has been dropped by manager Erik ten Hag and will not be part of Manchester United’s squad for Saturday’s game against Chelsea in the Premier League.

Ronaldo stormed down the tunnel in the final moments of United’s 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday after he was left on the bench by Ten Hag, taking the shine off what was an impressive team performance.

A statement read: “Cristiano will not be part of the Manchester United squad for this Saturday’s game against Chelsea. The rest of the squad is fully focused on preparing for that fixture.”
