According to the statement, the Red Devils will remain focused on continuing the team's progress under Erik ten Hag, and delivering more success.
“Everyone at Manchester United remains focused on continuing the team’s progress under Erik ten Hag and working together to deliver success on the pitch.” A statement was written.
After that, many people had expected the worse to come after the controversial 90 minutes interview Ronaldo granted Piers Morgan. The Portuguese player accused Manchester United and coach Erik Ten Hag of betrayal and lack of respect.
Also, Ronaldo considers MU management only concerned with commercials, but achievements are not thought of. One is choosing Ralf Rangnick to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last season.
Also, when he returned to United from Juventus at the start of last season, Ronaldo admitted that he was surprised by the facilities at the training camp. Technologically, Manchester United is very behind, according to him.
Moreover, there is also Ronaldo's heartache for the people at MU. Because, when he came late to the 2022/2023 pre-season, the reason for his sick child was not believed.
Those are some of the reasons why he felt some parties in the club wanted to get rid of him. It is known, the situation with MU is uncomfortable for him.
