Man Utd has confirmed that Ronaldo would not be in Ten Hag's squad to face Chelsea.

 Cristiano Ronaldo won't be traveling with Manchester United to Chelsea this

Sunday, the team has announced. 

In a statement issued by the club on Thursday, this was confirmed. The Manchester United team for this Saturday's Premier League match against Chelsea will not include Cristiano Ronaldo. 

The statement added, "The remainder of the squad is entirely focused on getting ready for that match."

A day after Ronaldo left Old Trafford early during their 2-0 victory against Tottenham Hotspur, United boss Erik ten Hag enforced the punishment.  The hierarchy of the club has endorsed the choice.

Given Ronaldo's 37-year-old dissatisfaction with being at the club, it is thought that Ten Hag would consent to his departure in the January transfer window.
