JAKARTA - The Manchester United (MU) players are reportedly getting irritated with Cristiano Ronaldo's attitude. A number of other players reportedly would have preferred the Portuguese star to leave rather than his stalemate with the club continuing.
A source from the club said there was growing anger among other players at Ronaldo's attitude within the team.
"This (Ronaldo's attitude) is really starting to annoy a lot of players now," the source said.
"He (Ronaldo) does have friends he has a close relationship with in the team, but many are fed up with how he does things," the source continued.
Indeed, Ronaldo has stated that he wants to leave Old Trafford. However, CR7's desire was rejected by the Reds who did not want to let go of the star.
Even though Ronaldo is very confident that he will be allowed to go to another club if United do not make it into the Champions League.
Ronaldo's strong desire to leave Old Trafford made his agent Jorge Mendes intervene. He even begged Manchester United boss, Richard Arnold, to mention the price of the player.
Mendes claims to have a deal in place for Ronaldo to move to a club that is still unnamed. However, the club owner insisted that he would not let Ronaldo go.
This situation then caused annoyance on Ronaldo's part. During this situation, the 33-year-old player clearly showed an attitude of no longer eager to defend the team.
Ronaldo is even known to be absent from the early pre-season agenda for family reasons. Although he was involved in a friendly match against Rayo Vallecano, he did not finish the match and chose to go home early.
In Manchester United's inaugural match in the English Premier League against Brighton and Hove Albion, Cristiano Ronaldo started from the bench. Manager Erik Ten Hag only lowered the player when the game had been running for 53 minutes.
