Cristiano Ronaldo has finally left Manchester United in the wake of his explosive interview with Piers Morgan ahead of the World Cup.
Ronaldo lashed out at United’s owners, executives, manager and his own teammates in an extraordinary tirade that aired in the week leading up to the tournament, effectively torching his bridges with the club.
Manchester United said: “Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect.
“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.”
And now, Jorge Mendes is expected to speak to Chelsea again regarding the Portugues.
Todd Boehly ‘sees the appeal’ of signing Ronaldo, while Graham Potter is ‘less convinced’.
However, any move will need Potter’s backing or owners to exert their authority.
