Roy Keane has warned that the situation between Manchester United and Cristiano Ronaldo 'could get ugly' as the new season dawns.
United host Brighton in the first match of their campaign on Sunday and much of the build-up to the game has surrounded Ronaldo's future at the club.
Last month Ronaldo made it known that he would want to leave United if a 'reasonable offer' came in for him, but several elite European outfits were not shy in ruling themselves out of the running to sign United's No.7, and it now appears likely he will stay at the club.

Although his future for this season at least looks to be in the north west, Keane is concerned that things still could take a turn for the worst.
