Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United on a free transfer after Erik Ten Hag took over as a manager. However, he also blamed the owners for not having enough ambitions. In retrospect, everyone’s beginning to wonder if those claims were actually correct. Months after the entire Cristiano Ronaldo saga, another former player of the Red Devils has also trolled the training facilities at Carrington and Old Trafford while making a bizarre comparison.
Several Manchester United fans also trolled Ronaldo during the interview. They thought that the Portuguese soccer star was bossing around and trying to cause havoc at the club. But the real reason Cristiano Ronaldo did the interview is for the outer world to see that all is not okay off the field for the Red Devils under the Glazers.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s claim proved right!
In an interview with Piers Morgan, Cristiano Ronaldo claimed that Manchester United did not have great facilities for a soccer player. The Portuguese soccer star, in other words, called the facilities ordinary. However, United fans rejected this claim as they accused the soccer veteran of disturbing squad harmony under Erik ten Hag. Manchester United also took advantage of the situation and mutually terminated his contract. However, the claims of Ronaldo are seemingly starting to make sense after the interview of ex-United star Charlie Savage.
Former Manchester United player Charlie Savage has made an astonishing claim about the training grounds. He said, “Reading’s training ground- I heard it was good, but I didn’t realize it was this good”. ” Honestly, I’d say it’s on par with United at the minute”, as per TalkSport. These types of statements were bound to send shockwaves. However, this statement should not surprise Manchester United fans. The Glazers have not made any major investment in improving the training ground. Although the reality is that Manchester United plays in the Premier League. Reading FC plays in League One, which is in the third tier of English football.
While it has been months since Cristiano Ronaldo departed from the UK, he’s now enjoying his time in the Middle East. The Portuguese soccer veteran has already won a piece of silverware at Al Nassr already within a year! What else has been going on with the veteran?
Cristiano Ronaldo – Mission Saudi Arabia
After leaving Manchester United, Ronaldo’s agent offered his client to many top European clubs. However, none took the opportunity to sign him. But the Saudi League saw the opportunity and took it. They made an offer to him that he could not refuse. It made sense for him financially to play in the Saudi league. So, he joined Al Nassr. The cash-rich league made the Portuguese star the face of their league waiting to explode on the world soccer platform.

Cristiano Ronaldo has made an immediate impact. He has also helped the local players in his team develop in the style of top European clubs. The Saudis have also made top-tier training facilities for soccer players to train. Following Ronaldo, the likes of Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante, and others have also joined the Saudi Pro League. Cristiano Ronaldo is also aiming to play the rest of his soccer playing career in the Middle East. This is great news for the sponsorships and viewership of the league too.
