Glazers embroiled in discussions over Cristiano Ronaldo’s future after explosive interview
Glazers in discussions over Cristiano Ronaldo’s future at Manchester United after an explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
In the aftermath of Cristiano Ronaldo’s explosive interview with Piers Morgan, it is reported that Manchester United co-owner Joel Glazer is embroiled in conversations regarding the forward’s future.
Joel Glazer is set to have the final say on Cristiano Ronaldo’s future in the wake of the Portuguese superstar’s stunning attack on the Manchester United co-owner and his family.
In an explosive interview with Piers Morgan that has just gone viral, Ronaldo made a number of high-profile targets at Old Trafford.
The entire 90-minute conversation, which the club did not approve of, is scheduled to air on Wednesday and Thursday.
After initially claiming he felt “betrayed” and taking aim at Erik ten Hag, Ronaldo also hit out at the Glazer family; insisting that United’s unpopular owners do not care about the club.
Ronaldo’s position at United is now believed to be considered untenable in the wake of his latest misdemeanor.
A fresh report from Associated Press, via The Guardian, outlines that a source with knowledge of the situation has confirmed that Glazer will ‘make the final decision’ over Ronaldo’s future.
It has also been confirmed that the club have been ‘supportive’ of Ten Hag’s handling of Cristiano Ronaldo after he was dropped from the team and ordered to train away from the first-team squad as a result of his meltdown against Spurs last month.
Ronaldo still has six months remaining on the lucrative two-year deal he inked with United last summer but remains keen on a move away.
He failed to engineer a switch in the summer transfer window in the wake of United’s calamitous Premier League campaign last year, and the onus will be on his agent, Jorge Mendes, to find a potential suitor willing to take him on once the transfer window reopens in the New Year.
The club is also understood to be currently taking legal advice and could even look into sacking the five-time Ballon d’Or winner in the wake of his astonishing rant.
