In another shot at the club, Cristiano Ronaldo said that Manchester United’s owners, the Glazer family, “don’t care” about how well the team does on the field.

Under new manager Erik ten Hag, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner has been a bit player this season, and he was punished for not coming on as a sub.

But the star player from Portugal was back on the team in recent weeks and even led the Red Devils when they lost 3-1 at Aston Villa.

But the 37-year-old didn’t play in United’s 2-1 win over Fulham on Sunday, which was their last game before taking a six-week break for the World Cup.

Ronaldo, who made his name at Old Trafford, gave an explosive interview to TalkTV on Sunday. He said he felt “betrayed” by United and that he thought the club’s top people were trying to get rid of him.

In another part of the interview that came out on Monday, he continued to attack the club where he made his name from 2003 to 2009.

The forward, who returned to the club last year, said that he doesn’t talk to the Glazers, the Americans who have owned United since 2005, and that he doesn’t think they have the club’s best interests in mind.

“The Glazers, they don’t care about the club… professional sport. As you know, Manchester is a marketing club,” he said.

“They will get money from the marketing — the sport, it’s, they don’t really care, in my opinion.

“The fans, they’re always right. I think the fans should know the truth, should know that the players want the best for the club. I want the best for the club. This is why I came to Manchester United.”
