Agbonlahor appeared on TalkSport where he discussed Ronaldo’s current predicament, saying:

“Cristiano Ronaldo would join Liverpool this summer, if he could. They are big rivals of Man United but it’s about Ronaldo.
“He will go anywhere he can still play Champions League football, add to his record and win titles.
“I don’t think Ronaldo has any loyalty to United, Real Madrid or Juventus.”
Ronaldo missed United’s preseason tour in Thailand and Australia “due to family reasons”, and is yet to feature for the club under Erik Ten Hag.
At the moment, The Sun reports that United are unwilling to let him go, despite making his stance very clear.
Ten Hag also reiterated Manchester United’s stance recently, telling BBC Sport that the five-time Ballon d’or winner was still part of his plans next season.
“Clear, he is not for sale. We are planning with him. And I am looking forward to working with him."He said.
