Fans all say the same thing as they realise Cristiano Ronaldo will train with Tom Huddlestone in Man Utd U21s

FOOTBALL fans have hilariously spotted that Cristiano Ronaldo could find himself training with Tom Huddlestone.

Tough-talking Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has axed the club legend from the squad for tomorrow’s game against Chelsea after he refused to come on as a sub against Tottenham and left Old Trafford early.

Ten Hag has told the 37-year-old to train on his own while the rest of the team prepare for the trip to Stamford Bridge and is hoping his time away from his teammates will give him time to think.

Ronaldo was pictured arriving and leaving Carrington today as he trained away from the rest of the first-team.

The forward has been fined £720,000 – two weeks wages – for defying the manager on Wednesday.

Now he could end up maintaining his fitness alongside United’s Under-21 squad – which includes ex-Tottenham and England midfielder Huddlestone.

The 35-year-old signed for United U21s as a player-coach in the summer and even hit the headlines himself after helping the youngsters to draw with Fleetwood in the Papa John’s Trophy this week.

Now after Ronaldo’s exile, supporters are revelling in the fact that the icon and Huddlestone could be working side-by-side.

One tweeted: “Cannot wait to see Ronaldo and Huddlestone doing bits in the Papa Johns trophy.”

Another said: “Ronaldo & Huddlestone linking up finally, the duo we didn’t know we needed!”

A fellow fan commented: “Things I would not have predicted before the start of the season: Tom Huddlestone and Cristiano Ronaldo being in the same squad.”

As another added: “Wouldn’t wanna play them any time soon huddlestone with the ping and ronaldo running in.”

Huddlestone has made three appearances for the side in the Papa John’s Trophy, but it seems unlikely that Ronaldo will be joining him any time soon.

SunSport exclusively revealed last night that Ten Hag wants Ronaldo out of the club for good.

He could have now played his last game as a Manchester United player.

Ronaldo also no longer has any allies left in the United dressing room, as revealed by SunSport.

CR7 posted a lengthy statement on social media after his strop but did not include an apology.
