After the derby in the absence of Manchester United, the British media claimed that Ronaldo had "disappeared" after returning to Portugal, and neither the club nor the agent knew where he was. But United's training on Tuesday shattered all rumours and Cristiano Ronaldo not only participated in practice, but was also the last player in the squad to leave the Carrington centre.
United are preparing for Saturday's home game against Tottenham Hotspur, and 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, accompanied by security guards, drove into Carrington early in the morning, and the British "Sun" reported that he practiced until the afternoon, becoming the last player in the team to leave.
Lonnick will hope that Cristiano Ronaldo can return to the Premier League and help Manchester United beat Tottenham Hotspur and at least retain the fifth place. If they lose at home to their opponents, United will be overtaken in two more rounds and the ranking will slip further to 6th. In the first leg of the two teams, Ronaldo and Cavani performed well to help Ole Gunnar Solskjaer win 3-0.
It is worth mentioning that Cavani also returned to Carrington to participate in training on Tuesday, and he also missed the derby with Manchester City due to injury on Sunday. Before the game, Lonnick publicly expressed optimism for Uruguay's comeback from injury, but after 3 days of training, the 35-year-old Cavani believed that his groin injury still did not recover enough to compete, and decided to continue the truce.
In this week's live broadcast, Chinese Super League star Dai Lin once joked that Cavani has come to Shanghai and is ready to join Shandong Taishan. But it turned out to be a joke, and Cavani had already posted his location via social networking sites on Monday as he accompanied the children at his home in Manchester. And Tuesday's appearance at the Manchester United training ground completely shattered his possibility of joining the Chinese Super League.
Cavani's contract expires at the end of the season, but his weekly salary at Manchester United is as high as 250,000 pounds, and now the Chinese Super League's salary restriction order will make it impossible for teams to attract Cavani to join.
La Liga remains its most likely next destination, followed by Brazil and Argentina in South America.
As for Ronaldo's future, it is likely to depend on Manchester United's next record. If the Red Devils are unable to return to the top four of the Premier League, or win this season's Champions League and ensure that they continue to play in the Champions League next season, the Portuguese superstar is likely to leave the team.
It is rumored that he is willing to go to Paris Saint-Germain to replace Kylian Mbappe, who may join Real Madrid, and form a trident with Messi and Neymar.
Manchester United are currently in dire straits, with the club's social media accounts also sparking controversy this week. They originally sold the discounted jerseys in the official profile, but after being shelled by fans, they had to change it temporarily and delete the promotional content.
The brief of the controversy over Manchester United's account reads: Manchester City's St. United homepage, buying a home shirt on the Manchester United official website, can enjoy a 35% discount. A link was then attached, and after being noticed by fans, people angrily denounced manchester United clubs for focusing only on commercial sales and having no bottom line on results.
Compared with Manchester United, Manchester City's account description epitomizes the 7 top league titles they have won, while Liverpool's account introduction is: the official account of Liverpool Football Club. Stop hating and stand up for abuse. Chelsea's introduction is simpler and more straightforward: the world champions.
One fan angrily rebuked Manchester United: "The club's profile is a very clear picture of the focus of their attention. For Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea, the goal is to win trophies. For Manchester United, it was to sell more shirts. The club is a mess from top to bottom."
The fan's post was liked more than 40,000 times, and eventually Manchester United was forced to change the introduction, leaving only the phrase "Manchester United's homepage", and then changed to "changing the football world" to pay tribute to women's football.
