The Portuguese forward’s bombshell conversation with Piers Morgan aired its first part on Wednesday, November 16. 26 minutes before the scheduled airing time of the interview, Neville took to Twitter to post (via Mirror):

Neville is the co-owner of Salford City football club along with a few former Manchester United legends. His team, however, lost the game 3-0.

In Ronaldo’s interview, he spoke about his failed move to Manchester City, the falling standards at Manchester United, former Red Devils managers, the tragic demise of his baby son, and former United players who currently work as pundits.

Neville’s name came up in the conversation as Ronaldo explained why he found it disappointing to be criticized by former United players, who were also his teammates at one point.

He told Piers:

What did Neville say about Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo?

Neville was not impressed with Ronaldo’s decision to walk out of the dugout during United’s game against Tottenham Hotspur earlier this season. It was the second time he had done so in a matter of months.

Ronaldo has had a frosty relationship with United coach Erik ten Hag. Commenting on a possible solution, Neville had said:

Ronaldo will next be seen in action when he comes out to lead Portugal in the upcoming FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
