The first excerpts from the interview
His future
“If they tried to force me to leave? Yes. Not only the coach but people from the club. I felt betrayed, says the former Real Madrid player. Maybe I shouldn’t say this but I don’t care, people need to hear the truth. Yes I feel betrayed and I have the feeling that some people don’t want me here, this season but also last season.”
Erik ten Hag
“I don’t have respect for him (Ten Hag) because he doesn’t show respect for me. If you don’t have respect for me, I’m not going to have respect for you.”
Ralf Rangnick
“Since Sir Alex Ferguson left there has been no development at the club, zero progression. For example the way a club like Manchester United fired Ole (Gunnar Solskjaer) to bring in a sporting director like Ralf Rangnick. Nobody understood, he’s not even a coach. It surprised me but it surprised everyone. Nothing has changed. Neither the jacuzzi, nor the gym, certain elements of technology. .. not even the kitchen or the chef, a lovely person, continues Ronaldo. They stopped time, it surprised me a lot because I thought I would find different things there, new infrastructures. But unfortunately, I found things that I had already seen when I was 20-21 years old.”

“I followed my heart. Sir Alex said to me: ‘It’s impossible for you to go to Manchester City’. And I said: ‘Ok boss’.”
