Transfer: You can't have him - Neville warns Ten Hag, Man Utd over Ronaldo
Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has warned the club they will face a repeat of the Paul Pogba saga if they do not allow Cristiano Ronaldo to leave this summer.
Ronaldo is eager to leave Old Trafford this summer and has only played 45 minutes of football during pre-season.
United insist the 37-year-old is not for sale despite his agent Jorge Mendes scouring the market for a new club.
Neville believes letting Ronaldo go would potentially save the club a lot of hassle in the new season.
"It happened sometimes over the last few years. You had Pogba's agent - not necessarily Pogba all the time but his agent - always playing with the club.
"You can't let your star player run the shop. You can't have him.
"So when Sir Alex Ferguson in the past moved players, it was because that player needed to be moved. I know the Manchester United fans, but if Ronaldo wants to leave, Manchester United should make that easier," Neville said on Overlap.
