Cristiano Ronaldo's blunt text message sums up exactly what he thinks of Man Utd

Piers Morgan has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo quipped he was as 'free as a bird' in a text message after his Manchester United contract was terminated.

Ronaldo's exit came less than a week after his explosive, unsanctioned interview with Morgan, where he took aim at Erik ten Hag, the Glazer family and the club's facilities. And Morgan has now lifted the lid on the first conversation he had with the Portuguese superstar since he became a free agent.
