Cristiano Ronaldo's interview with Piers Morgan disappoints Manchester United. Here’s why

Some interviews can cause a significant scandal when accusations are hurled, and recently, Cristiano Ronaldo has stirred a hornet’s nest. Ronaldo recorded a 90-minute interview with Piers Morgan, highlighting his ongoing differences with his club.

After defeating Fulham in a 2-1 match, Manchester United was preparing to return from London when they found out about Ronaldo’s interview and its contents. This has upset the club’s coach Erik ten Hag, and other players, who can’t understand why Ronaldo would make such comments.

As it turned out, Ronaldo made bold accusations about the coach and the players of Manchester United, revealing his feelings. When Morgan asked whether the club’s higher management wanted him out, Ronaldo agreed, stating that the coach and a few other players wanted to oust him from the club and felt betrayed.


Ronaldo has also revealed that he didn’t respect the coach Erik ten Hag simply because ten Hag didn’t respect him. He said that he only respected people who respected him.

On Thursday, the club told Ronaldo that he would not feature in the starting XI but would be a part of the squad. However, Ronaldo told the club he was not well and didn’t attend the match.
