Man Utd: Ronaldo ‘really sorry’ as talks with Ten Hag are revealed

Ronaldo apologises to Ten Hag

Man Utd star Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly “really sorry” about his actions during his side’s win over Tottenham and he is now “100% available”.

Ronaldo’s career at Man Utd looked to be all but over after his latest act of petulance against Tottenham Hotspur.

The forward refused to come on as a substitute during the 2-0 win and he left the bench and walked down the tunnel before the final whistle.

Erik ten Hag rightly punished the forward. He was subsequently made to train away from the first-team and he was not considered for selection when United faced Chelsea on Saturday evening.

Ronaldo is now back in contention as it has been confirmed that he is in United’s squad for Thursday’s game in the Europa League against FC Sheriff.

“Ronaldo was really sorry, but also Ten Hag understood the player wanted to be involved more. They spoke about it, they had multiple conversations, and they decided to shake hands and now Ronaldo is back in the United first-team.

“We will now see if Jorge Mendes will continue to try to find a club for Ronaldo in January, but we know it won’t be easy to get such a big deal done in the middle of the season.

“United would also have to find a new striker, and again it’s not easy to find top players in January.

“Overall, I’m told that all the people in Manchester United think that Ten Hag handled this incident very well, board included.”

Should Ronaldo attempt to leave in January, it is unlikely that he will have lots of options.

Sporting Lisbon have ruled themselves out of the running, while according to…
