Cristiano Ronaldo leaves Manchester United: ‘by mutual agreement’ and ‘with immediate effect’

Cristiano Ronaldo will leave Manchester United​, as confirmed by the English club two days after the striker’s debut with Portugal at the World Cup in Qatar, scheduled for Thursday at 1pm against Ghana.

“Cristiano Ronaldo will leave Manchester United by mutual consent, with immediate effect‘, authorities at the Premier League club said.

Through a short message posted on the official Manchester United Twitter account, they thanked Cristiano Ronaldo.”his immense contribution in two legs at Old Trafford“.

The news came while the talented striker is focusing on Portugal to play the World Cup, in which he is part of group H together with Uruguay, South Korea and the aforementioned Ghana.

And now that?

War between Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United had already been declared. For a long time, the footballer didn’t want to continue – since he didn’t achieve sporting goals or fight for titles – and the club got tired of him.

“I shouldn’t say this, I don’t know, but I don’t care, I’ve always been interested in people hearing the truth. Yes, I feel cheated, I feel like some people don’t want me herenot only this year, but also last year”, was the declaration of CR7 to journalist Piers Morgan who lit the fuse that went out this Tuesday with his departure.

What is not yet known is where he will continue his career once Portugal’s participation in the World Cup is over and the striker has to report to his new club.

There are rumors, yes. In recent days it has been circulating that Cristiano Ronaldo and his representative, Jorge Mendes, met the directors of Bayern Munich In England.

The Bundesliga champion has long been interested in the five-time Ballon d’Or. Its executive director, Oliver Kham, even admitted it in July, although he also made it clear that incorporating him was not part of the club’s “philosophy”.

For this reason, a return to Portugal is not excluded, more precisely to Sporting Lisboa, the club where he made his debut. Nor that he stays in the Premier League, Chelsea or Newcastle.
