Cristiano Ronaldo is considering leaving Manchester United at the end of the season to avoid being partially or wholly displaced as a result of coach Erik Ten Hag’s impending squad overhaul.
After a strong start to the campaign, injuries and fitness issues have led Cristiano Ronaldo to struggle more in recent matches and he has failed to maintain that same level of play.
As Manchester United enter the most challenging part of their season, with a run of key contests such as a crucial clash with Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea, they need Ronaldo’s goals more than ever.

However, his recent goalscoring drought, with two goals and one assist in his last ten matches, it appears unlikely that the Portuguese would return to form in time to salvage United’s top four hopes.
Praizsports has learned from sources close to the player that 36-year-old may consider leaving the club amid incoming coach Erik Ten Hag’s planned overhaul of the squad.
Manchester United have chosen Erik Ten Hag as their new head coach, with the current Ajax boss expressing his intention to spearhead a large-scale squad overhaul as well as be heavily involved in the club’s future transfer dealings.
