Manchester United Won't Payoff Cristiano Ronaldo After Contract Termination

 Cristiano Ronaldo will not receive any payoff from Manchester United following his contract termination with the club.


Both United and Ronaldo only wanted a clean slate to respect the 37-year-old’s history at the club, reports Fabrizio Romano.

United terminated Ronaldo’s contract by mutual consent after it was reported days ago that they were exploring the possibility.

The striker will leave the Old Trafford club with immediate effect following his interview with Piers Morgan.

A club statement read: “Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect.

“The club thanks him for his immense contribution across two spells at Old Trafford, scoring 145 goals in 346 appearances, and wishes him and his family well for the future.

“Everyone at Manchester United remains focused on continuing the team’s progress under Erik ten Hag and working together to deliver success on the pitch.”

Ronaldo said in the Piers Morgan interview that he is blamed for all that has gone wrong at the club, with the Old Trafford outfit forcing him out.

He said: “Yes, they [United] are trying to force me out. Not only the coach [Ten Hag], but two or three other guys around the club.

“I feel that some people didn’t want me at Manchester United, not only this year but last season too.

“The fans should know the truth. I want the best for the club. This is why I come to Manchester United.

“I am giving this interview, because I think it’s the right time to speak my mind.

“I felt betrayed. Honestly, I shouldn’t say that … but, listen, I don’t care, I’m always… People should listen to the truth.”

Ronaldo said he loves United and the fans, but it’s the right time for him to seek a new challenge.

He said: “Following conversations with Manchester United we have mutually agreed to end our contract early.

“I love Manchester United and I love the fans, that will never ever change. However, it feels like the right time for me to seek a new challenge.

“I wish the team every success for the remainder of the season and for the future.”

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...
