Cristiano Ronaldo received a frosty reception from Bruno Fernandes after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan, and more Manchester United stars could follow suit in the coming weeks
Cristiano Ronaldo’s explosive interview with Piers Morgan was always likely to have major repercussions for the beleaguered Manchester United star.
The Portuguese veteran was offered an olive branch by Erik ten Hag after storming off in a strop before the conclusion of last month’s win over Tottenham, but Ronaldo’s relationship with the Dutchman is surely now broken beyond repair after he insisted that he does not respect the Old Trafford chief during the unsanctioned 90-minute discussion.
Ronaldo also claimed that he feels “betrayed” by the club over how he has been treated this term before taking aim at a number of high-profile names linked to United – and unsurprisingly, his comments have not gone down too well.
That was evident when he was reunited with Bruno Fernandes on Monday. The Manchester United teammates are both prominent figures in the Portugal squad, who are travelling to Qatar for the World Cup.
