Manchester United have suffered a COVID-19 outbreak, but that has not kept Ronaldo from continuing his fitness training.

On Sunday, Manchester United announced they have implemented a few changes to their training sessions due to a COVID-19 outbreak.

According to MEN, four Man United players and staff members have tested positive for COVID-19. Following a request from the club, the Premier League decided to cancel the Red Devils’ match against Brentford.

The club also cancelled their Tuesday’s training session. However, that did not stop Cristiano Ronaldo from continuing his own fitness training. The Portuguese superstar published a video of himself on Instagram, doing cardio exercise.

Ronaldo has enjoyed great form since returning to Man United in the summer. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is keen to prove himself as a key player under the new manager Ralf Rangnick. On Sunday, he scored the Red Devils’ winner against Norwich as they climbed up to fifth place in the league.

The Premier League has not announced a date for the postponed match. According to the league calendar, Man United must face Brighton in their next match on Saturday. However, considering the current situation, the league officials might decide to postpone that game too.
