Romano confirms that it was 100 per cent Erik ten Hag&#8217;s decision to give this punishment to the striker and that the manager also has the support of the board as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More<\/strong>:<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/10\/18\/manchester-united-jonathan-david-potential-move\/\" target=\"_self\"> Fabrizio Romano Recommends Jonathan David Signing for Manchester United<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Not just the gaffer, but the higher-ups at Old Trafford are also unhappy with Ronaldo&#8217;s behaviour after he stormed out of the Spurs game before full-time. The Dutch gaffer wanted to bring him onto the pitch in the last minutes of the game, but Ronaldo flat-out refused to do so. This has been confirmed by the manager himself.<\/p>\n<p>After that, he took the decision to deal with his blatant show of disrespect and has dropped the Portuguese forward from the squad before one of the biggest games of United&#8217;s Premier League season.<\/p>\n<h3>Ronaldo Could Discuss Potential Exit After \u2018Breaking Point\u2019 in Relationship<\/h3>\n<p>Romano adds that the relationship between the Portuguese forward and the Red Devils have now reached a breaking point after this drastic step.
