Cristiano Ronaldo has left Manchester United.
Nov
Manchester United of the English Premier League announced on Tuesday that Cristiano Ronaldo is leaving the club with immediate effect.
According to a statement released by the English Premier League club on Tuesday, Cristiano Ronaldo will be leaving Manchester United effective immediately.
A week after Ronaldo gave an explosive TV interview about his frustrations at the club, United said in a brief statement that the decision was made by mutual agreement. This comes a week after Ronaldo gave an explosive TV interview about his frustrations at the club.
“The club appreciates him for his enormous contribution throughout his two stints at Old Trafford, scoring 145 goals in 346 games, and wishes him and his family well for the future,” the statement added. “The club thanks him for his immense contribution across two years at Old Trafford.”
Everyone at Manchester United is committed to continuing the team’s improvement under Erik ten Hag and working together to achieve success on the field.
Ronaldo said on Monday that the timing of his recent statements regarding United would not impair the focus of his Portuguese colleagues while they are competing in the World Cup in Qatar. Ronaldo is presently in Qatar with the Portugal national team for the World Cup.
Ronaldo explained to Piers Morgan for TalkTV just before the start of the World Cup how he felt United had betrayed him and how he has no respect for manager ten Hag’s leadership. Ronaldo said that the interview was released just before the start of the World Cup.
The 37-year-old scored just once in 10 Premier League appearances this season before leaving United.
As a result of Ronaldo’s departure from Manchester United, the 37-year-old forward’s second stint with the club comes to a contentious and disheartening close. During his second stint with United, Ronaldo scored only once in 10 Premier League games this year.
He has been used rarely as a starter under Ten Hag, and only a month ago, during a match against Tottenham Hotspur, he declined to step onto the field and instead walked down the tunnel when there were still a few minutes left in the game. He was a replacement.
It is quite possible that Ronaldo will not compete in another World Cup after this tournament, and it is still unknown which club will sign him for the second half of the current season after that.
As soon as he signed with United in 2003, Ronaldo went from being a crafty and skilled winger to being one of the finest players in the world. He is now the captain of the Portuguese national team.
Before making the move to Real Madrid in 2009, he had already won the first of his five Ballon d’Or awards, as well as three Premier League championships, the FA Cup, two League Cups, the Champions League, and the FA Cup.
The fans of Manchester United were very enthusiastic about Ronaldo’s return to Old Trafford after he spent the previous season playing for Juventus. Despite their excitement, Ronaldo’s second stint at Old Trafford did not live up to the achievements of his first, as United finished the season without any trophies.
Ronaldo released a statement in which he said that after discussions with Manchester United, the two parties “mutually decided to finish our contract early.”
“I will always and forever adore Manchester United, and I will always and forever love the supporters.” On the other hand, I believe that the time has come for me to look for a new challenge.
“I hope that the squad has continued success over the rest of the season and in the years to come.”
