Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo claims he has been “betrayed” by Manchester United and believes they are trying to force him out of the club.
The Portugal star said that head coach Erik ten Hag and others around the club want him out of Old Trafford in excerpts of a 90-minute interview released on the Piers Morgan Uncensored Twitter feed.
When asked by Morgan if United’s hierarchy were trying to force him out of the club, Ronaldo, 37, said: “Yes, not only the coach, but another two or three guys around the club. I felt betrayed.”
When asked again if senior club executives were trying to oust him, Ronaldo said: “I don’t care. People should listen to the truth. Yes I felt betrayed and I felt like some people don’t want me here, not only this year but last year too.”
The former Real Madrid man also said Erik ten Hag doesn’t respect him so he also doesn’t have respect for him.
United play far better when Ronaldo doesn’t play. Needless to say, he was absent from the team that beat Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday night.
“Since Sir Alex Ferguson left I saw no evolution in the club, the progress was zero,” he added.
