Even though in the transfer windows before the start of the season he himself said he would keep Ronaldo no matter what happened at the moment, just the opposite lol.
But indeed, with the uncomfortable conditions between Ronaldo and Ten Hag, this is definitely a signal for Ronaldo to go back from Old Trafford because it would be very useless if he still continues to clash with Ten Hag because he is the one in control.
I'm not sure about a contract termination at this point but Erik Ten Hag mentioned Ronaldo will not be included in the match squad to face Chelsea in the weekend but for what it is worth I think Ten Hag is being too hard on Ronaldo and not giving him opportunity to play and that is what gets Ronaldo furious. He loves to play and should be given the opportunity to show the world he’s not finished yet.
