Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United is said to be enraged at being kept out of the Manchester City match at the weekend.
According to the Sun, the Portugal international's future at Manchester United is now in jeopardy as his agent Jorge Mendes tries hard to calm him down following his outrage at Ralf Rangnick's tactical decision for the Manchester Derby.Despite reports of an injury to Ronaldo, the article claims that the 37-year-old was scheduled to be benched for the game at the Etihad Stadium, with Rangnick telling him that he wanted to use him as an impact sub.
According to the Sun, Ronaldo was not pleased with this and pulled out of the game, leaving Mendes to wage a hopeless battle to persuade the player to stay at Old Trafford.It goes without saying that, given United's current troubles, this is far from ideal, with Rangnick desperately wanting to keep this group together and focused on the increasingly difficult objective of finishing in the top four.
Ronaldo came to United from Juventus last summer, but he'll no sure have discovered that the club is in a far different situation than it was during his first term under Sir Alex Ferguson.
