The Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo has decorated this Sunday that he has felt “betrayed“for his club, Manchester United, which has turned him into a “black sheep” who is blamed for everything that has gone wrong in the entity, and believes that he is now being forced to leave.
“Manchester United tried to force my departure. Not only the coach, but also the rest of the people who surround the club. I felt betrayed,” Cristiano Ronaldo told English journalist Piers Morgan.
“I feel that some people didn’t want me at Manchester United, not only this year, but also last season,” he added.
Referring to his last managers at United, the Portuguese said that he only respects the Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who was sacked just a few weeks after Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to the club.
About Ralf Rangnick he stated: “If you’re not even a manager, how can you be the boss of Manchester United? I had never heard of him”.
Of Erik Ten Hag, who suspended Ronaldo last month for refusing to be substituted at the last minute against Tottenham, he said: “I have no respect for him because he shows me no respect. If you don’t respect me, I’ll never respect you.”
Also to his former teammate, Wayne Rooney, very critical of the Portuguese: “I don’t know why he criticizes me so badly… probably because he finished his career and I’m still playing at a high level. I’m not going to say I look better than him, which is true.”
Ronaldo says that Old Trafford managers they came to doubt him when he explained why he couldn’t come back, which made him feel “hurt” and “bad”.
