Cristiano Ronaldo has not been included in Manchester United’s squad for Saturday’s friendly against Atletico Madrid, with the forward still wanting to leave the club after talks this week.

The 37-year-old is not part of United’s travelling 21-man squad, which includes new signings Lisandro Martinez and Christian Eriksen, for this weekend’s friendly against the Spanish side in Oslo.

Ronaldo and his agent Jorge Mendes held meetings with United at Carrington on Tuesday, but his position remains unchanged and he wants to play for a club in the Champions League and win major trophies.

United do not want him to go, however, and Ronaldo has started training with the team having missed the club’s pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia due to family reasons.

His potential options elsewhere are limited. Chelsea are not an option anymore, while Bayern Munich and Atletico appeared to publicly rule themselves out this week.
