Former Tottenham Hotspur and England manager Glenn Hoddle believes Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo's explosive interview with Piers Morgan could play into Portugal's hands at the World Cup in Qatar.
Just hours after United had signed off for the World Cup with a dramatic 2-1 win over Fulham last Sunday afternoon, Morgan confirmed that he had conducted an interview with the 37-year-old. During the sit-down chat with the former Good Morning Britain host, Ronaldo slammed United and manager Erik ten Hag, claiming that the club had 'betrayed' him and that Ten Hag had shown 'no respect' towards him.
Following the airing of the full interview on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, United, as reported by the Manchester Evening News on Friday, are considering terminating Ronaldo's contract and sacking him. It is highly unlikely that he will play for the club again, such was the nature of his comments.
