Manchester United star player Cristiano Ronaldo has finally returned to United’s training after his suspension. He was ordered by the club’s head coach to train alone last following his rude action. The 37-year-old refused to come on as a substitute against Tottenham last Wednesday and was subsequently dropped for Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Chelsea.
Manchester United head coach Erik Ten Hag later said there had to be consequences for his actions. It is understood there has been communication between Ronaldo and Ten Hag over the past few days and they have resolved the issue.
Ronaldo claimed the “heat of the moment” made him act the way he did after he left Old Trafford before the end of United’s 2-0 win over Spurs, having left the bench and walked down the tunnel in the 89th minute. The Portuguese’s presence in training suggests he is in contention to play in Thursday’s Europa League Group E home game against Moldovan club Sheriff Tiraspol.
Defender Harry Maguire and midfielder Donny van de Beek also trained on Tuesday after recent injury problems.
