Ronaldo to miss United's final game of the season

(Reuters) - Forward Cristiano Ronaldo will miss Manchester United s final game of the season away to Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday due to a hip injury, British media reported on Saturday.

The club refused to comment when contacted by Reuters.

Ronaldo, who missed matches in January and March with hip flexor trouble, is United s top scorer this season with 24 goals in all competitions.

United are sixth in the league on 58 points, two points above seventh-placed West Ham United, and they need a win at Selhurst Park to be certain of securing a place in next season s Europa League.

Sunday s game will be Ralf Rangnick s last as the interim manager, with Erik ten Hag set to be the permanent manager from next season.
