Cristiano Ronaldo had left OLD TRAFFORD before the final whistle of Manchester United's victory over Tottenham.
Unused sub Ronaldo, 37, stormed down the tunnel with a handful of minutes remaining in the game.
The Athletic are now reporting he left the ground altogether before the match came to an end.
However, his absence did not spoil the dressing room celebrations as the players enjoyed a "vibrant" post-match party.
United boss Erik ten Hag had used just three of his five permitted subs but Ronaldo was not hanging about.
Ten Hag said: "We will deal with that on Thursday. I saw him leaving but I didn't speak to him after."
