Ten Hag: Ronaldo Didn't Prepare Right and Let Team Down
Ten Hag said Ronaldo failed to meet the fitness and work-rate demands of Premier League football and let Manchester United down.
- On Monday, the Portuguese FA suspended Cristiano Ronaldo for 30 days following a rift with coach Jorge Jesus over his role in the squad, fining the 41-year-old forward £255.
- Former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag claimed Ronaldo failed to prepare for Premier League football, alleging the forward lacked the necessary fitness levels required for top competition.
- During a 4-0 loss to Brentford early in his tenure, Ten Hag claimed Ronaldo pulled out of training sessions and failed to run. "I confronted him with this," Ten Hag added.
- The Dutchman, sacked in October 2024 shortly after signing a contract extension, claimed United's owners broke promises regarding loyalty and communication, leaving him "embarrassed" over Scott McTominay's sale to Napoli.
- Ten Hag revealed he wanted to sign Kane, who instead joined Bayern Munich, and Rice, who moved to Arsenal, expressing frustration he never spoke directly with leadership about the decision processes.
