JAKARTA - The new manager of Manchester United, Erik ten Hag, has finally spoken about the future of Cristiano Ronaldo. He said he wanted to keep the Portuguese player.

Previously, many doubted that Cristiano Ronaldo would be included in Erik ten Hag's plans at Manchester United next season. In addition, the player is also often rumored to intend to leave.

However, Erik ten Hag's statement made it all clear. Cristiano Ronaldo will still be the mainstay of the Red Devils on the front lines.

"I can't wait to work with him. Ronaldo is a giant, because of what he has shown, and I think he is still ambitious," said Ten Hag, as reported by the Mirror.

"Of course I want to keep him. He has been a very important player for Manchester United this year and can show good statistics," he continued.

Recently, Ronaldo has also given a signal that he will stay at Old Trafford. He thinks the former Ajax Amsterdam coach will bring success to the team.

"We are happy and excited, not only as players, but also as supporters," said Cristiano Ronaldo. "Let's believe that next year we will win the trophy."

Meanwhile, Ten Hag has agreed to start working at Manchester United earlier than expected. This is after he got the blessing of his former club, plus because of the scale of the work that awaits him at Old Trafford.

"We have agreed that I will be hired by Manchester United from May 16," said Erik ten Hag. "In preparation for the season there are still some things to do."
