Cristiano Ronaldo 'is set to miss training AGAIN' due to hip flexor problem that ruled him out of Man United's dismal derby defeat at rivals City - when he jetted off to Portugal instead of supporting his team-mates

Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to miss training on Wednesday with an ongoing hip flexor problem, having missed Manchester United's derby day defeat to Manchester City on Sunday.

The forward is yet to participate in the main team sessions since missing Sunday's Manchester derby, causing concern for the Red Devils, as doubts continue to grow whether he will be fit in time for the weekend.

The players that didn't feature in United's 4-1 loss to City were in at the training ground on Monday, although the Portuguese superstar was not among them.
