Cristiano Ronaldo 'is NOT part of Erik ten Hag's plans with Manchester United bound boss open to letting him leave this summer'... but £385,000-per-week star still has two years remaining on his deal

Incoming Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly made it known that Cristiano Ronaldo does not form part of his plans for next season.

The Dutchman is due to be announced as the Manchester United boss for next season, potentially some time after his Ajax side's Dutch Cup Final against rivals PSV this Sunday.

Having been handed a two-year deal last summer on thought-to-be astronomical wages, Ronaldo's status poses difficult questions to the United hierarchy over whether to persist or cut their losses.

The Star has now reported that ten Hag is keen for United to do away with Ronaldo as the player does not fit into his plans for next season and beyond.
