What Cristiano Ronaldo ‘told Ralf Rangnick’ before public Man Utd rant speaks volumes

Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly made his lack of respect for Ralf Rangnick clear away from the cameras at Man Utd.

It reportedly led to an incredible exchange where Ronaldo told Rangnick his conditions for game time as United’s headline player.

According to Bild, the five-time Balon d’Or winner explained that he would play four out of every five games, and in the one that he missed, he wouldn’t be available on the bench.

Ronaldo is said to have allowed Rangnick – the manager – the freedom to decide which games to drop him for while insisting that he would be watching from home rather than in the dugout.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but since Sir Alex Ferguson left, I saw no evolution in the club, the progress was zero,” Ronaldo explained.

“For example, we have an interesting point that, how the club as Manchester United after they sack Ole, they bring in sports director Rangnick, which is something that nobody understands.

“This guy is not even a coach. A bigger club like Manchester United bringing in a sports director – it surprised not only me but all the world, you know?

“Of course, in my opinion. We have to be honest: if you’re not even a coach, how are you going to be the boss of Manchester United? It’s something that I should say that Manchester is not followed.”
