Man Utd news: Cristiano Ronaldo price demanded as Christian Eriksen hits out at critics

The saga around Cristiano Ronaldo's future at Manchester United shows no sign of concluding soon, with the end of the transfer window less than a month away.

The superstar attacker reportedly has at least one offer on the table from an interested club as he searches for an exit from Old Trafford. United are less than keen to let him leave though, despite Ronaldo's agent now demanding they name their price for the 37-year-old.

The news comes as Ronaldo also learnt his punishment for leaving the friendly against Rayo Vallecano early and Christian Eriksen hit out at those who had criticised his decision to join the Red Devils. Here, Mirror Football rounds up all the latest news from United.

HAVE YOUR SAY! Where will Manchester United finish in the Premier League this season? Comment below.

Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes has demanded Manchester United name their price for the wantaway attacker.

The Portugal captain has made it clear that he sees his future as being away from Old Trafford. A move to a Champions League club is his top priority following a season in which United stumbled to a sixth-place finish.

He [Eriksen] is not going to play ahead of Fernandes. Some people might prefer him to Fernandes but his numbers do not suggest that he is at Fernandes' level," Mills said.

It is fair to say that Eriksen does not share Mills' opinion though and has now fired back. The Dane joined United on a free transfer earlier this summer, having spent the second-half of last season at Brentford.

Ronaldo learns Vallecano punishment

Manchester United have opted to take no action against Cristiano Ronaldo after he left their draw with Rayo Vallecano early.

Ronaldo had made his first appearance since Erik ten Hag officially took over as manager on Sunday. But he was hauled off at half-time, as his match fitness remains several steps behind his team-mates.

Rather than take to the stands, the 37-year-old opted to leave Old Trafford before the final whistle. And Red Devils chiefs have now decided what they will do in response to Ronaldo's early exit.
