Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag said that Cristiano Ronaldo might harmonize with his style of play, but stressed that the Portuguese striker must regain his former fitness, before he has a chance to enter the squad.
Ronaldo missed United’s pre-season trip to Thailand and Australia, and did not participate in a friendly match in which his team lost once morest Atletico Madrid, while he participated in 45 minutes during United’s 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano of Spain last Sunday.
In response to a question regarding the possibility of Ronaldo harmonizing with the style that the Dutch coach wants in “United”, Ten Hag said, “I think he can harmonize with my style, but he must start to return to his fitness, he has just started.”
“He’s a great player, he’s proven that many times,” Ten Hag told Sky Sports.
Ronaldo’s future at United was the subject of speculation, following British media reported that he had told the club that he wanted to leave so that he might play in the Champions League, while United will compete in the European League this season.
And “United” will start his career in the new season of the English Premier League by playing once morest Brighton & Hove Albion next Sunday.
