In an interview with Piers Morgan for TalkTv, Cristiano Ronaldo said that Manchester United’s hierarchy were trying to force him out of the club. 

According to the Portuguese forward, Erik ten Hag is among the big names trying to force him out of the club he loves. 

“Yes, not only the coach (Erik ten Hag), but another two or three guys around the club. I feel betrayed.” Cristiano Ronaldo said when asked if United’s hierarchy were trying to force him out of the club. 

When asked if senior executives were trying to force him to leave, Cristiano 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.” 

Cristiano Ronaldo also said that he has no respect for Erik ten Hag in the interview. And the reason Ronaldo doesn’t respect ten Hag is that the Dutch manager doesn’t respect him. 

“I don’t have respect for him because he doesn’t show respect for me; if you don’t have respect for me, I’m never gonna have respect for you.”
