Manchester United no longer want Cristiano Ronaldo at the club following his staggering interview with Piers Morgan, according to Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol.

The Portugal captain declared in the interview that the club had 'betrayed' him, with several key figures wanting him out of Old Trafford. Cristiano Ronaldo went on to slam the club for not progressing since Alex Ferguson, while also slating former teammates Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville. He also took a dig at manager Erik ten Hag, saying that he does not 'respect' the Dutchman.

Writing for Sky Sports, Solhekol claimed that Manchester United have had enough of the forward, as he stated:

"When he was told that he was not starting against Villa in the Carabao Cup clash on November 10, he went to see United's medical department to tell them he was not well. Manchester United have not seen him since. I would not rule anything out at the moment, United will be having talks at the club today (Monday) with senior officials working out what their next move should be.
"Some people are suggesting there are grounds for Cristiano Ronaldo to be… I would not say sacked, but it feels that this is so serious to be saying the kind of things he said and also on the back of the disciplinary issues he has had with the club this season and there is a feeling that enough is enough."

He continued:

"He said in the interview that he has had enough and he is not going to be silent anymore and I think that feeling is shared by United as well, they have had enough of Ronaldo."

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag feels he has never disrespected Cristiano Ronaldo

Following a turbulent summer, Cristiano Ronaldo has endured a miserable campaign so far, scoring just three times in 16 appearances across competitions.

As reported by Solhekol, the Manchester United boss was baffled by the striker's comments, as the journalist further added:

"As far as Erik ten Hag is concerned, he has never disrespected any player including Ronaldo. The 37-year-old has started four games since he was dropped for the game at Chelsea and he was captain for the league game against Aston Villa on November 6.
"It's the club's problem, not Ten Hag's problem now. It has got so big that it has to be dealt with by owners and senior figures at the club, not something Ten Hag can deal with on his own."

He added:

"It appears that there is no way back for Ronaldo now at United and it's unlikely he'll play for the club again. Everyone at the club has done whatever they can to help Ronaldo but there is only so much they can do."
