Erik ten Hag says he will “deal with” Cristiano Ronaldo after he left Old Trafford before full-time in Manchester United’s 2-0 victory over Tottenham.
Ronaldo was seen walking down the touchline and up the tunnel in the closing stages of Wednesday’s match at Old Trafford.
The 37-year-old watched from the stands as United defeated Spurs to move within a point of the Premier League’s top four.
Asked whether Ronaldo had spoken to him before walking down the tunnel before the completion of the match, United boss Ten Hag told Amazon Prime: “He was there, I have seen him, but I didn’t speak with him.”

In his post-match press conference, Ten Hag added: “I don’t pay attention to that, I will deal with that later. I want to keep the focus on the team.
“It was magnificent from all 11 players. I have to correct myself. It was also a performance from the substitutes who came on. Once again, it was a squad performance. I think what we have seen is 11 players who defend and 11 who attack. I was pleased.
