Roy Keane believes that Cristiano Ronaldo should have left Manchester United in the summer after it was confirmed the Portuguese star would immediately depart Old Trafford.
The Red Devils confirmed on Tuesday evening that Ronaldo's contract had been terminated by mutual consent, 15 months after he re-joined the club from Juventus. Ronaldo's abrupt exit comes after he conducted an explosive interview with Piers Morgan, where the five-time Ballon d'Or winner took a swipe at the club, Erik ten Hag and the Glazers.
It looked inevitable that Ronaldo was going to leave the Red Devils and United released a statement which thanked the forward for his "immense contribution across two spells at Old Trafford". Ronaldo scored 145 goals in 346 appearances for the Red Devils and the club "wishes him and his family well for the future".
