The Portuguese star has shocked supporters by revealing his hopes of leaving Old Trafford earlier this summer after they failed to qualify for the Champions League.

Although his intentions are clear, the 37-year-old is currently in a state of uncertainty with no potential exit looking likely at any time over the past few weeks.

As Man United kick off their season against Brighton this weekend, fans are wondering if Ronaldo could be involved.

However, a Red Devil doesn’t want him near the team.

“I want him gone,” United fan Lewis told Kick Off.

“Look, he’s one of the greatest players of all time, he’s a United legend and always will be, but he shouldn’t have come back last season.

“We shouldn’t have brought him back. Now he is causing more trouble, he clearly wants to leave.

“If he stays, we know what we’re going to get. Yes, he will score goals, but we will see the sulks, the strops when things are not going well or he is replaced or dropped on the bench.

“We’re going to see that again throughout the season. Just get rid of him. Let him go.

“It leaves us short, that’s the only catch because he’s our one and only superstar, world-class player and yes, we’re losing that glittering stardust because he’s Ronaldo and he’s attracting attention. attention of the world.

“What do we have left? Martial is not the answer. He’s been there for seven years and he’ll never be the answer, so he has to go too.

“The whole summer has been a mess. It was all about chasing Frenkie de Jong who it doesn’t look like we’re going to get, the Ronaldo saga has been going on for weeks and we’re left with more or less the same 11 rubbish that failed under multiple managers for 5, 6 or 7 years. They proved they weren’t up to it. »

However, talkSPORT presenter Mark Goldbridge has given a clear reason why Ronaldo won’t be allowed to leave.

Speaking to social media, the United Stand host replied to the fan: “Lewis may want to look at our attacking options for Sunday with Martial injured…”

Martial is set to miss United’s Premier League opener against Brighton this weekend through injury.

The French forward was expected to start in 9th place but suffered a hamstring problem in last week’s pre-season friendly loss to Atletico Madrid.

It means Ronaldo can start the game up front, although Erik ten Hag previously insisted he was out of form after missing the majority of the Red Devils’ pre-season campaign.

The Premier League is back and talkSPORT has it covered, with games on Friday, Saturday and Monday, starting with Crystal Palace against Arsenal on August 5
