According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo will return to Manchester United‘s Carrington training facility on Monday morning for preseason practice.
A number of players, including Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, David de Gea, Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial, and Donny van de Beek, worked with the team’s new head coach Erik ten Hag during the past several days as the Red Devils began their preseason.
However, players who competed for their nations in the international matches in June, including Ronaldo, were allowed more time off.
In order to pick his squad for the preseason trip to Thailand and Australia, Ten Hag will have his 15 players back in training on Monday, according to the Manchester Evening News.
The Red Devils will depart for Bangkok on Friday of next week, four days before their first summertime friendlies against Liverpool and Premier League rivals Manchester City.
In recent weeks, there has been a lot of talk over Ronaldo’s future, with the 37-year-old rumored to be thinking about his situation at Old Trafford ahead of the upcoming season.
Bruno Fernandes recently denied rumors that his club and countrymate may leave, and Man United is said to have made it clear to any would-be bidders that the Portuguese player won’t be going during the current summer transfer window.
Along with Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane, Diogo Dalot, Alex Telles, Eric Bailly, Scott McTominay, James Garner, Fred, Hannibal Mejbri, Facundo Pellistri, and Anthony Elanga, Ronaldo and Fernandes are anticipated to resume training on Monday.
