The No 7 shirt might be available at Manchester United sooner than people expected following Cristiano Ronaldo's explosive interview with Piers Morgan this week.
Ronaldo, who was already tipped to leave Old Trafford in January or the summer, sparked controversy after slamming the club in an unauthorised interview. The 37-year-old claimed that the club had betrayed him, criticised manager Erik ten Hag and the club's owners and took aim at a number of his former teammates.
It is the most controversial moment of Ronaldo's season so far, but comes after he was dropped from the squad for one match and made to train alone after refusing to come on as a substitute in the win over Tottenham in October. He stormed down the tunnel and left the stadium before his teammates had returned to the dressing room.
