Ten Hag claims Maguire, Ronaldo still in Man Utd plans after Liverpool omission

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag insists Harry Maguire and Cristiano Ronaldo will 'play a role in the future' after being dropped for Monday's clash with Liverpool.

United captain Maguire has been linked with Chelsea recently, while Ronaldo has been pushing for an exit from Old Trafford all summer.

The Red Devils excelled without the duo against Liverpool, with Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho scoring in a 2-1 victory.

Explaining his selection decision, ten Hag told Sky Sports: "I have a squad and we have to use the squad.

"We play 50-60 games, from game-to-game we will see what team we will pick. I don't have to mention Maguire and Ronaldo, they are amazing players, and they will play a role in the future and the short future as well.

"We have the right players, I am convinced of that. The window is not closed and you need numbers and also quality."
