Sharjah 24 – Reuters: Cristiano Ronaldo has parted with Manchester United "with immediate effect," the Premier League club confirmed Tuesday.
The 37-year-old's future with United was in question after an interview in which said the club had made "zero progress" since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013 and that he "doesn't respect" ten Hag.
His contract wasn't due to expire until June, but the club is not paying Ronaldo to leave early, according to multiple reports.
"Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect," United said in a statement.
Ronaldo is in Qatar preparing for Portugal's opening game against Ghana on Thursday.
