"As players, you just want the situation ironed out and sorted out immediately, you don't want it lingering on and dragging on, I think Harry Kane had that with Spurs last year."
He added:
"But I think the reasons are different. Cristiano, there's been issues behind-the-scenes with his family and health and stuff like that. You have to take that into consideration."He added that if the player is adamant about leaving, the club should accept that and move on. He continued:
"But if the reports are true - that he's looking to move and what not - then you kind of want the club to nail that down so there isn't a hangover going into the season. I'd like to think - if you're looking at this as a supporter - this will be sorted out one way or the other."
Cristiano Ronaldo continues to train with Manchester United as they prepare for Premier League opener
Cristiano Ronaldo played 45 minutes for Manchester United in a friendly game against Rayo Vallecano but that does not mean all is good. He is contractually obligated to take part in the club's games and was merely doing his job.
The Premier League 2022-23 campaign kicks off this weekend and Manchester United face Brighton & Hove Albion at home on Sunday, August 7.
It would be interesting to see if Erik ten Hag puts Ronaldo in the starting lineup for the opening match of the season.
