Cristiano Ronaldo received huge punishment and dropped from the Man Utd squad after leaving old Trafford 89m
Cristiano Ronaldo has been dropped for Manchester United’s trip to Chelsea on Saturday as punishment for refusing to go on as a late substitute and for leaving early in Wednesday’s win over Tottenham.
Speaking after the game, the United boss insisted he would “deal with” Ronaldo on Thursday, where it was confirmed he would not feature in Saturday’s trip to Stamford Bridge.
A club statement read: “Cristiano will not be part of the Manchester United squad for this Saturday’s game against Chelsea. The rest of the squad is fully focused on preparing for that fixture.”
