'Legacy ruined': Fans divided after Cristiano Ronaldo accuses Man United of betraying him in explosive interview with Piers Morgan

Fans were shocked and stunned after Cristiano Ronaldo blasted Manchester United and manager Erik ten Hag in an explosive TV interview, saying he feels "betrayed" by the club and that senior figures have tried to force him out of Old Trafford.

The interview is set to be broadcast this week on Britain's TalkTV but advance clips were released late Sunday — just hours after United's final game before the World Cup.

Game over

Ronaldo was left out of the squad for the second match in a row after the club said he had an undisclosed illness, although the Portugal's star latest comments will increase speculation that he has played his final game for the club.

When asked on the program "Piers Morgan Uncensored" whether United's hierarchy was trying to force him out of the club, Ronaldo said: "Yes, not only the coach, but another two or three guys around the club. I felt betrayed."

When quizzed again if senior club executives were trying to oust him, the 37-year-old Portugal star said: "I don't care. People should listen to the truth.

"Yes, I felt betrayed and I felt like some people don't want me here, not only this year, but last year too." United made no immediate comment.

Following the interview, fans took to social media to air their reactions.

Some fans defended the Portuguese superstar, while others slammed him calling him unprofessional.
