When Cristiano Ronaldo announced that he would be returning to Manchester United, all Red Devils fans were thrilled as the Portuguese striker is one of the greatest legends in the history of our club and one of the greatest players of all time in the history of football.

 

However, when Ronaldo arrived for his second spell with the Red Devils no one imagined how his story at Old Trafford would end. In just his first season back with the team he was the top scorer of the entire squad, proving that his quality remained intact and that he could be one of the key players in Manchester United's rebuilding project. But everything changed with the arrival of Erik ten Hag, as the Dutch tactician gradually relegated Cristiano Ronaldo to a less active role, something that did not go down well with the player.

The relationship between Ronaldo and ten Hag deteriorated to the point where the player received internal sanctions because he did not feel valued by the coach, and at that time the team's owners did not know how to intervene in the right way to support a legend of the institution, which led to the famous interview that Cristiano Ronaldo gave to journalist Piers Morgan, in which he strongly criticized the club and the management of the Glazer family.

Finally, Cristiano Ronaldo ended up leaving the club in January 2023 for the Saudi Arabian league, and before that, many thought that Erik ten Hag was always right, because during his first semester in the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo left empty-handed in terms of titles. However, once again, Ronaldo has shown that we should never doubt him.

 

Cristiano's lesson that humbled the Glazers

In the last match of the Portugal national team, Cristiano Ronaldo received recognition for his 200 international matches, which also earned him a Guinness World Record. In addition, Ronaldo scored Portugal's winning goal against Iceland and has now scored 5 goals in 4 games in the Euro 2024 qualifiers. Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag and the Glazers have not been able to bring a new world-class striker to the team.
