Quotes from Cristiano Ronaldo’s interview with Piers Morgan continue to be published. After it was published on the first night that the Portuguese star “feels betrayed” by Manchester United, now more quotes are being published with his equally harsh statements about the club’s management.
In the part that came up this time from the interview, Ronaldo He launched a sharp attack against the owners of Manchester United, the Glazer brothers, saying: “The Glazers don’t care about the club, Manchester is a marketing club (for them). In my opinion they don’t really care about the sport, they will get their money from marketing. Have I talked to them since I got back? Never. They give the power to the president and the sports director.”
On the question of whether he agrees with the fans who say that the Glazers take the money out of the club and don’t invest enough in the players and the club: “The fans are always right and they need to know the truth. The players want the best for the club, me too. I think it will be difficult for Manchester (United) to be At the top of the game in the next two or three years.”
About Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville CR7 said: “No, they are not my friends. Not only because they speak ‘favorably’ about me, but because they were there in the dressing room, football players. They know how players think, behave, etc. It’s hard to hear people you played with talk negatively about you, like Gary Neville.”
The striker added: “Everyone can have their own opinion, but they don’t know what’s going on in training and even in my life, they need to hear not only one opinion but also mine. Because it is very easy to criticize, but only if you know the past then it is very easy. It’s very easy to criticize, I don’t know if there is such a job on television to criticize people in order to be more famous.”
Ronaldo continued to shoot at the two former players: “I think they are taking advantage of my name. They are not stupid, but I really understand and I have to go on with my life with the criticism and with the praise. It’s hard when you see people who were with you in the dressing room criticizing you in this way.”
When asked if it hurts him, Ronaldo replied: “Yes, it’s not good. I’m not going to sleep badly over this, but it hurts to hear it. It disappoints me a bit. As I have stated many times, Roy Keane for me was my best captain ever. Rio Ferdinand helped me a lot. He was my neighbor, I was his neighbor. So these are very good guys.”
“It seems that the managers at Manchester United did not 100% believe that my daughter was born sick. It hurts because they didn’t accept my word,” said Ronaldo, “that’s why I didn’t participate in the pre-season training camp. I had to be there for my family, said the Portuguese.
As a reminder, United announced that the club is aware of the star’s words and will “consider its steps” on how to deal with things, after all the details have become clear. In any case, it is difficult to see how the Portuguese will continue in the club where he broke into the consciousness of world football after the World Cup.
