Erik ten Hag accuses Cristiano Ronaldo of ‘letting down’ Manchester United
Ten Hag says Ronaldo did not complete post-match run Former manager claims club broke promises made to him Erik ten Hag has claimed Cristiano Ronaldo “let the team down” during their time together at Manchester United. Ten Hag has also alleged that promises made by United’s owners went unfulfilled, leading to his sacking by United in October 2024.
Ronaldo returned for a second spell at United in August 2021 and was already at the club when Ten Hag was appointed as Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s successor in 2022. However, the relationship between the pair quickly broke down, with Ronaldo refusing to come on as a substitute in a win over Tottenham in the October before he then publicly criticised the club in a TV interview. The forward’s contract was mutually terminated the following month.
