Manchester United are set to undergo major changes after another disappointing season, but former midfielder David Beckham expects Cristiano Ronaldo to last at least another year.
United’s 4-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion over the weekend means they can’t finish higher than sixth.
The Old Trafford side have appointed Ajax Amsterdam manager Erik ten Haag to replace interim boss Ralf Rangnik from the end of the current campaign, with the Dutchman hoping to improve the team during the close season.

Ronaldo has scored 24 goals in all competitions this season and Beckham, who also wore United’s number seven jersey, expects the 37-year-old to remain a forward.
“It’s important to him – we all know how much United means to him. He’s still doing what he does best,” Beckham told Sky Sports at the Miami Grand Prix.
“What he’s doing at his age is really incredible so hopefully it continues for a year or two.”
Beckham, who won six Premier League titles at United, said fans were sticking to the side during some tough times, with the 2012–2013 season approaching United’s last league title.
“It’s been a tough end of the season. But it’s the end of the season, I’m sure a lot of fans are grateful for because it’s been tough – full of ups and downs,” he said.
“The players have done what they can best, so have the manager. I came to the stadium a few months back and every seat was full so the fans still believe, they support, they come for the team.
“That’s what United fans do. There aren’t many teams they’ve gone through over the years and still filling their stadium. There will be changes.”
