Man United Make Decision on When Cristiano Ronaldo Will Leave the Club

• Cristiano Ronaldo could part ways with Manchester United during the upcoming transfer window
• Reports suggest Erik ten Hag is ready to sanction the exit of Ronaldo, who has a couple of months left on his current deal
• The Portuguese star has endured a torrid start to the new season, scoring just one goal so far in the campaign

Manchester United are reportedly ready to part ways with Cristiano Ronaldo in January.

Ronaldo was keen to leave Old Trafford in the summer, but his push hit a snag after United failed to get offers for him.

The veteran striker is said to have expressed a desire to quit the Red Devils, so he could join a club playing in the Champions League.

Ronaldo's continued stay at the Theatre of Dreams has not gone according to plan, with the 37-year-old enduring a slow start to the new season.

Apart from getting relegated to the bench, the forward has found it difficult to find the back of the net whenever he is called upon.

His struggles culminated into a snub by Erik ten Hag during the Manchester derby, with the Portuguese left warming the bench the entire match.

Phil Foden and Erling Haaland both bagged hat-tricks as the Premier League champions cruised to a 6-3 victory.
