Despite the rumors of recent weeks, which suggested his farewell at the end of the season, especially after failing to qualify for the Champions League, Cristiano Ronaldo will continue to play at Old Trafford next season.
This was assured by the new Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, in his first English press conference.
When explicitly asked whether he considers CR7 suitable for the style of play he wants to adopt, the former Ajax coach replied with a laconic "yes", adding that he expects "many goals" from the Portuguese champion.
"The challenge that awaits us is huge and we have little time - the first words of ten Hag -. The opponents to beat are Manchester City and Liverpool, but I can't wait for the new season to start. I'm here because this club has an incredible history and the team has important potential. I am not going to speak now to players who need to break away after a long season. I will do so in due course. "
After the last defeat on the field of Crystal Palace, United closed the Premier in sixth place (they will make the Europa League), trailing 35 points from City, champion of England for the second consecutive season, the fourth in the last five years .
