No Cristiano Ronaldo v Barca in February as Man United terminate his contract
Barcelona will face Manchester United in the Europa League play-off round in February. However, Xavi does not have to worry about coming up with a way to stop Cristiano Ronaldo as the Portuguese will not play that game.
That is because Man United have officially announced that the parties have reached a mutual agreement to terminate the player's contract.
The reasons are not specified, but it definitely has to do with Cristiano's recent interview with Piers Morgan where the 37-year-old star called out the club and its owners and said he didn't have respect for the coach.
