Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect.
Ronaldo is on his way out of Old Trafford following his television interview in which he admitted to feeling “betrayed” by the club and had no respect for new manager Erik ten Hag.
He went on to criticise the United hierarchy and said the Glazer family cared far more about the money-making potential of United than results on the pitch.
He even turned on former teammates Gary Neville and Wayne Rooney by stating that “they are not my friends” after he received criticism from his former teammates.
“Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect,” United said in a statement.
“The club thanks him for his immense contribution across two spells at Old Trafford, scoring 145 goals in 346 appearances, and wishes him and his family well for the future.
“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.”
