This is a sensational media release that will cause a lot of ink to flow in the coming days. Since the arrival of Erik ten Hag on the Manchester United bench last summer, everything has changed for Cristiano Ronaldo (37). The Portuguese star was never really part of the plans of the former Ajax coach, who did not hesitate to make the five-time Ballon d’Or a simple replacement for the side of Old Trafford.
In the eye of the storm for having refused to come into play against Tottenham, there is little, even leaving the stadium before the final whistle in Manchester, CR7 had drawn the wrath of the media, the supporters and his management, who had even excluded him from the group for several days. Ronaldo was eventually reinstated, even enjoying more playing time for a few games. Ill this week, the number 7 of the Red Devils had missed the League Cup match against Aston Villa, before not even being part of the score sheet this Sunday at Fulham (2-1, J16 of the Premier League), without indication peculiar to the Mancunian club.
“I have no respect for him”
It may be a total coincidence, but Cristiano Ronaldo gave an interview to Piers Morgan and relayed by The Sun, which aired on Sunday evening. An interview during which the Portuguese completely emptied his bag. “Did they try to fire me? Yes, not only the coach, but two three guys (internally) tried to make me leavefirst dropped the former Real Madrid. I felt betrayed. Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but I don’t care, people need to hear the truth. Yes, I feel betrayed and I have the feeling that some people don’t want me here, this season, but also last season. »
“I feel betrayed.”

And the top scorer in the history of the selection to make very heavy comments towards Erik ten Hag. “I have no respect for him (Ten Hag) because he doesn’t show respect to me. If you don’t have respect for me, I’m not going to have any for you. » To top it all off, Cristiano Ronaldo also accused his club and therefore their managers of lacking empathy when his three-month-old daughter was hospitalized in July and he was unable to return to pre-season in time to stay by his side. Ronaldo came out of the woods, and it’s doing damage, a few days before the 2022 World Cup and a few weeks before the winter transfer window…
Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave
An interview that should make a lot of noise throughout Europe in the coming hours. And the fivefold Ballon d’Or explained the reasons for this speech. “For me, the fans are everything. That’s why I’m giving this interview, because I think it’s the right time to say what I think. I think fans should know the truth. I want the best for the club. That’s why I came, but there are things inside (the club) that don’t help to reach the highest level like City, Liverpool and even now Arsenal.he explained, before discussing his future and a departure which promises to be imminent.
“A club of this size should be at the top of the tree in my opinion and unfortunately they are not. Progress was nil (when he returned to Manchester United). Since the departure of Sir Alex (Ferguson), I have not seen any evolution in the club. Nothing had changed. As Picasso said, you have to destroy it to rebuild it and if they start with me, for me, it’s not a problem.. A beautiful punchline that may definitively seal the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to the Red Devils…
