Marcus Rashford, Edinson Cavani, Fred and Jesse Lingard are also among those not following the rising star, who is at the centre of shocking allegations that he attacked an 18-year-old.

But club captain Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes are in a group of 18 squad members who have so far maintained their support for the young forward on the social media platform, Sportsmail can reveal.

The images appeared to show the woman bloodied and bruised and the audio included a voice recording of a conversation between a man and a woman, dated October last year, which purportedly chronicled the woman being attacked.

Greenwood, who earns £75,000-a-week, has been suspended by Manchester United until further notice.

Within hours of the messages emerging and spreading across social media, his club put out a statement saying it was aware of them and they were making inquiries “to establish the full circumstances”.

It added, “Manchester United does not condone violence of any kind.”

Ronaldo follows 498 people on his Instagram account, including Diogo Dalot, David de Gea, Paul Pogba, and Jesse Lingard, but not Greenwood.

Paul Pogba is following Kurt Zouma, Romelu Lukaku, Alexandre Lacazette, Mario Balotelli, and Jadon Sancho among the 157 people he is following, but the United youngster is not among them this morning.

Similarly, Marcus Rashford boasts Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, and on-loan Anthony Martial in his list of the 171 he is following, but not Greenwood.

However, the majority of United’s squad are still following the England international 24 hours after his arrest. As well as the skipper and Fernandes, team members, including, Victor Lindelof, Eric Bailly, Raphael Varanne, Luke Shaw, Bruno Fernandes, Donny Van de Beek, Scott McTominay and Jadon Sancho are following the suspended starlet’s Insta account.
