JAKARTA - Piers Morgan revealed Cristiano Ronaldo's first message after officially separating from Manchester United (MU). The star feels free but still has ambitions to play in the Champions League.

Quoted from Marca, Morgan immediately sent an online message after Ronaldo and MU separated. He gave a moving image of a famous film scene for Ronaldo's freedom.

I texted Cristiano with GIF William Wallace at Braveheart while shouting: 'Freedom!'" Morgan said, Sunday, December 4.

"He thought it was the perfect summary of how he felt, 'Bebas like a bird' was his response," Morgan continued, explaining Ronaldo's answer.

Morgan also said that Ronaldo, who is currently focusing on defending Portugal, still wants to play in the Champions League. Morgan's statement seemed to refute the news that Ronaldo would play in the Saudi Arabian league after the 2022 World Cup.

"He thinks if he does well at this World Cup, he will get what he wants, which is a club in the Champions League that extends his record and legacy," Morgan said.

"It's not about money. It leads to a burning desire to play football at the highest level, to break records and win trophies," he explained.

Ronaldo officially separated from Manchester United last November. The club decided to terminate CR7's contract after a video of his interview with controversial Piers Morgan spread.

In the interview Ronaldo revealed his harmonious relationship with Erik Ten Hag and several people at MU.
