Manchester United save £17 million as Cristiano Ronaldo will not receive any pay off

United recently announced that Cristiano Ronaldo has left the club via mutual agreement. The Portugal captain, however, won't be receiving any pay-offs.

The Red Devils are set to save around £17 million as a result. By adding an attacker as a priority for Erik ten Hag's side, that amount could prove to be helpful.
