Doubts over CR7’s future at Old Trafford are sky-high after the forward’s explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel wants Cristiano Ronaldo to stay put and work things out with the club.
Now more than ever, Ronaldo is expected to leave United in the January transfer window. The Portuguese’s interview with Piers Morgan on TalkTV has led many to believe that his time at Old Trafford is over, especially after saying he has no respect for manager Erik ten Hag.

That said, Schmeichel still hopes United don’t lose a player of Ronaldo’s caliber.
“I believe in fairy tales,” the former Red Devils goalkeeper told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“I’m a big, big fan of Ronaldo. I’ve always been a big fan of him. And I’m a big fan of Manchester United having the best players in the world.
“I hope there will be an opportunity where his people and Manchester United can sit down, and talk this through, and find a solution.”
Ronaldo’s tell-all interview with Morgan is set to be broadcasted in full this Wednesday and Thursday.
