Cristiano Ronaldo denies saying ‘I’m not finished’ after Man Utd win
Cristiano Ronaldo has another year on his deal at Manchester United, but doubts have been raised as to whether he will stay at Old Trafford.
Cristiano Ronaldo has denied saying “I’m not finished” following Manchester United’s 3-0 Premier League win over Brentford.
The Portugal international scored a second-half penalty as United saw off the Bees at Old Trafford on Monday and, after the game, reports suggested he made the comment into a television camera during the lap of honour to mark the Red Devils’ final home game of the season.
Ronaldo denies claims
Ronaldo has rebuffed those claims on social media.
A United fan account on Instagram posted about the 37-year-old’s alleged comment, to which the player himself replied directly, writing: “I didn’t say that.”
It was claimed by some who thought Ronaldo had made the comment that the Portugal great was making reference to the fact his future at United has been shrouded in doubt.
One year left at Old Trafford
Ronaldo still has a year remaining on his deal with the Red Devils, with the club having the option to extend it by a further 12 months.
He has been one of the few success stories in what has been a season to forget for United, scoring 24 goals in 37 appearances in all competitions since returning from Juventus last year.
There has been increased speculation as to whether the former Real Madrid man will be staying with United next season, with new manager Erik ten Hag arriving at the end of this campaign to try and return the club to their former glories.
