Erik Ten Hag was caught off guard by Cristiano Ronaldo's media interview while at a UEFA coach conference when the news broke. The Dutchman was taken aback by the comments of his then-star player who he wanted to work with.

The interview saw Ronaldo berate Ten Hag's choice of him and how he felt disrespected by the Dutchman who just took over the managerial position at the club during the summer after his three years stint at Ajax.

The club hierarchy which includes Ten Hag decided that it was best to let Ronaldo go and move on to what the future held for them as a club moves further to their future. The decision to dismiss Ronaldo meant that Erik Ten Hag now has a must-fill vacant attacking position.

The club is reportedly interested in bringing in top-quality talent that would have an instant impact on the squad and help them keep their season targets alive as they compete on all fronts. The quest for quality sees them head to Madrid for a Portuguese star.
