Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag confirmed Cristiano Ronaldo refused to come on as a substitute against Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday and that he is now training away from the first-team squad.
Cristiano Ronaldo was the hat trick hero when Manchester United last played Tottenham in March 2022. The two sides met again on Wednesday and Ronaldo made the headlines, but for all the wrong reasons.
United had a dominant performance against Spurs with Fred and Bruno Fernandes scoring the goals in a 2-0 victory. What caught everyone’s attention was Ronaldo — who didn’t feature in Wednesday’s game — heading down the tunnel at Old Trafford in the 89th minute.
MANCHESTER — British prosecutors said on Saturday Manchester United soccer player Mason Greenwood had been charged with attempted rape, controlling behavior and assault.
The 21-year-old was arrested in January after social media images and videos were posted by a woman reporting incidents of physical violence.
"The Crown Prosecution Service has today authorized Greater Manchester Police to charge Mason Greenwood, 21, with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm," prosecutor Janet Potter said in a statement.
After much waiting, Cristiano Ronaldo finally hit the milestone of 700 career club goals after scoring against Everton with Manchester United in the Premier League.

LIVERPOOL, England - Cristiano Ronaldo stepped off the bench to earn Manchester United a 2-1 victory at Everton in the Premier League on Sunday, taking his career goal tally to 700 in the process.
Just as they did last weekend in their derby mauling at the hands of local rivals Manchester City, United found themselves behind early on at Goodison Park after Alex Iwobi curled a sublime strike into the net from 22 yards.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still having fun despite his limited minutes with Manchester United. A moment in training with defender Lisandro Martínez is going viral for Ronaldo’s reaction. Watch as Ronaldo nutmegs Martínez in training during a rondo session and then humorously celebrates his achievement.

MANCHESTER — Erling Haaland and Phil Foden scored hat-tricks to fire champions Manchester City to a rampant 6-3 thrashing of local rivals Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday.
City's football was slick, incisive and ruthless in its execution as Haaland claimed his third hat-trick in eight league games and Foden netted his first Premier League treble on a humbling afternoon for United.
It doesn't seem fair to even call it a tackle. A more apt description would be “murder attempt.” Wolves found itself behind early against Manchester City, but center back Nathan Collins almost killed Man City winger Jack Grealish with a ridiculous challenge, as City cruised to a 3-0 win.
A straight red card to Nathan Collins for this foul on Jack Grealish. Wolves are down to 10 men.
That’s it. The competition is over. Cristiano Ronaldo is now the undisputed GOAT, doing something Lionel Messi never could.
Ronaldo scored his first career Europa League goal in Manchester United’s 2-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol on Thursday, giving him infinity times more goals in the competition than Messi.
And, of course, Ronaldo scored it from the penalty spot.
ErlErling Haaland volvió a maravillar al mundo con su surreal olfato goleador en la victoria por 2-1 del Manchester City sobre su ex equipo, el Borussia Dortmund. Y si bien el noruego marcó solo uno de los goles del club inglés, lo que captura la conversación es la sensacional acrobacia que hizo para conectar el pase a tres dedos de Joao Cancelo.
