Fresh details have emerged over the Manchester United dressing room reaction to Cristiano Ronaldo's controversial interview with Piers Morgan
Former Manchester United assistant manager Mike Phelan has opened up on Cristiano Ronaldo 's difficult second spell at the club.
Erik ten Hag's arrival at the club from Ajax in the summer of 2022 then saw Ronaldo's game time become limited. The forward went on to criticise the Dutchman and United in a controversial interview with Piers Morgan in November 2022 before leaving the club for Al Nassr the following month. "I don't think there was a massive reaction within the environment," he told talkSPORT. "I think it was a case of why did he do it?
"I think he had a point. There were elements to the ground that were tired, the training ground that were tired. He's a high-maintenance player, Cristiano. Massive standards, huge standards."
