GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
According to the newspaper, ten Hag instructed his players not to wear jewellery during training. Ronaldo had done so under both Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick but ten Hag had a separate policy. Eventually, ten Hag instructed Steve McClaren, his assistant, to deal with the matter and inform Ronaldo to take the earrings off; he responded by throwing them into a bush.

United face Barnsley in the League Cup in midweek. Ronaldo will next be in action on Friday against Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia, having been forced out of Al-Nassr's squad for an AFC Champions League clash with Al Shorta through illness.
