In recent times, Ronaldo has been amid many controversies. Before the start of the FIFA World Cup finals, CR7 left Manchester United, a club that gave him all the recognition and a club that welcomed him back with great fanfare. In an explosive interview with English journalist Piers Morgan, Ronaldo admitted that he had few offers from Saudi Arabia but he said that he would not like to end his career somewhere that doesn’t have much competitive football. Ronaldo sounded miffed with how things turned out to be at Manchester United and he didn’t mince words while addressing the fact that the club hadn’t made any progress after he left. Things got pretty bitter between ManU boss Erik ten Hag and Cristiano Ronaldo. Hag also went to the extent of benching Ronaldo for a few games. Ronaldo now plans to win new championships and share his experiences with the younger generation in Asia and that is where he will spend the final days of his career.
