Ronaldo’s second stint at Old Trafford is done after the club terminated his contract by mutual agreement following his shocking interview with Piers Morgan. and said he felt betrayed by Manchester United and has no respect for Erik ten Hag. “I don’t have respect for him [Ten Hag] because he doesn’t show respect for me. If you don’t have respect for me, I’m never gonna have respect for you.”
Ronaldo also told Morgan that he would “retire on the spot” if Portugal win the World Cup but plans to play until he’s 40 and wants to appear in the UEFA EURO Championship. in 2024.
Cristiano said a few days ago at 37 years and 8 months he has nothing to prove although I’m sure with all his accolades and accomplishments he would love to win the World Cup which has thus far eluded him.
Where will Ronaldo go now that he is a free agent after the World Cup? I guess it all depends where he wants to play and the money he wants. He was making 500,000 British Pounds a week plus Bonuses with Manchester.
