Will Ronaldo remain at Man United?
Ronaldo sparked rumours about his future after claiming that incoming manager Erik ten Hag must be given time to succeed at Old Trafford.
The Portuguese captain’s future has been the subject of intense speculation ahead of the Dutchman’s arrival, with the 37-year-old having just one year left on his current contract.
With United failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League, doubts remain over whether the former Real Madrid man will remain at the club beyond the summer.
Ronaldo backs incoming boss Ten Hag
Despite the speculation, the striker has suggested that the Red Devils will be able to challenge for trophies under the 52-year-old’s guidance.
“I know that he has done a fantastic job at Ajax, and that he is an experienced coach, but we have to give him time,” Ronaldo told United’s official website.
“Things must change the way he wants. If he does well, all of Manchester United will be successful, so I wish him well. We are all happy and excited [about his arrival], not only as players, but as fans as well.
“We have to believe that next year we can win titles.”
While United have endured an underwhelming campaign, which has seen the club fail to win a trophy for the fifth straight season, Ronaldo has performed well individually, scoring 24 in all competitions since returning to the club.
