Manchester United arrived in Bangkok this Saturday, where he begins his tour, acclaimed by fans at the airport, despite the disappointment of the fans due to the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo was not on the expedition, who wants to leave the Old Trafford team and has not traveled with the group. This Tuesday, United, now led by Erik ten Hag, will play a historic friendly on Thai soil against their most traditional rival, Liverpool.

On Tuesday, some of the tickets for said friendly against Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool have been sold for no less than 685 euros. It is historic because it is about the first meeting between foreign teams in Thailand since the start of the pandemic. Then the ‘red devils’ will travel to Melbourne to continue their tour and the ‘reds’, to Singapore.
According to United, Cristiano Ronaldo is not with the expedition because he has to solve a family matter, although the truth is that the Portuguese star has asked his agent, Jorge Mendes, to find him a team. CR7 wants to play the Champions yes or yes and the Old Trafford team did not get a place in it, since it was 6th in the Premier. Ten Hag is the bet of the United leadership to try to return to the top positions.
