The 37-year-old Portugal international has been granted additional time off to deal with a family issue and will not join Erik ten Hag and his squad on their tour of Thailand and Australia.
In regards to Ronaldo’s future at Old Trafford. United is willing to listen to offers for Ronaldo this summer, although the club’s public stance is he remains under contract for another season and is not for sale.
United’s tour kicks off against Liverpool in Bangkok on July 12, before facing Melbourne Victory in Australia three days later and Crystal Palace in Melbourne on July 19.
They will then face Aston Villa in Perth on July 23 before returning home via Oslo, where they will face Atletico Madrid on July 30.
United’s only game on English soil before the new season starts will come against Rayo Vallecano on July 31, meaning they may be more than a month into their pre-season preparations before Ronaldo next features for the club.
