Ten Hag Confirms: Cristiano Ronaldo Will Stay at Manchester United Amid Transfer Rumors
Date: September 2, 2022
Despite swirling rumors and mounting media speculation, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has officially confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will remain at Old Trafford, at least until January.
As the transfer window slammed shut, Ten Hag made it clear that Ronaldo stays, and the club is done with summer signings.
“We Need Quality Players Like Ronaldo” | Ten Hag Stands Firm
When asked about Ronaldo’s future, Ten Hag responded with certainty:
“It is clear. We need quality players. You need more to cover all the games to keep the consistency going.”
With United’s packed fixture list and the added burden of Europa League duties, Ten Hag emphasized the necessity of having experienced match-winners like Ronaldo in the squad.
Despite the 37-year-old’s desire to play in the Champions League, the Dutchman isn’t willing to let him go.

No More Transfers | United Closed for Business
Ten Hag also announced that Manchester United’s summer transfer business is complete.
That means Cristiano Ronaldo, as well as right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, will both remain part of the squad heading into the new season.
“So this squad, we will go from September to minimum January. We will play with this squad this season,” Ten Hag added.
This signals a strong backing of his current group, despite a turbulent start to the season.
Ronaldo’s Situation | From Exit Talks to Integral Role
Ronaldo’s summer was filled with uncertainty.
From Champions League exit rumors to reports of frustration over playing time, it seemed his second spell at Old Trafford might be cut short.
But Ten Hag has now put an end to the speculation.
With the transfer window now closed, focus shifts to how Ronaldo will fit into Ten Hag’s tactical plans, whether as a starter, impact sub, or mentor to younger talents like Marcus Rashford and Antony.
What This Means for United’s Season
With Ronaldo staying and Ten Hag choosing to stick with his current squad, Manchester United fans will hope for better consistency, especially as the team continues to recover from early-season stumbles.
The message from the manager is clear: every player counts, and with a leader like Ronaldo on board, United’s ambitions for silverware remain alive.
