This is funny, I hope it's true:

Greenwood 'fears he can't join a Saudi club due to Ronaldo feud'

The 21-year-old is looking for a new club following news on Monday that he would leave Manchester United after they conducted an internal investigation into his future.

www.dailymail.co.uk

"While the Portuguese superstar was playing for Real Madrid - where he won numerous honours and highlighted his status as one of the greatest players of all-time - Greenwood was reported to have openly said Ronaldo's career was 'dead' - slang for 'finished' - when referencing the 38-year-old's perceived decline.

He received a telling off from United chiefs at the time who felt it demonstrated a lack of maturity on his behalf.

The comment emerged in March this year, with the pair having previously spent a spell together as team-mates when Ronaldo returned to Old Trafford for a second time in 2021.

However, the report went onto say how when the forward was informed of Greenwood's comments, he was infuriated, and urged Saudi League chiefs to never make a move for the Englishman.

One source told The Sun: 'Ronaldo isn't known for his thick skin. He was really annoyed at what Greenwood said — but he has good reason to be when you consider what Ronaldo has achieved in his career and where Greenwood finds himself.

'Greenwood had his nose put out of joint when Ronaldo signed for United because he ended up playing a lot less than he had hoped for, so their relationship was difficult.'"

Ronaldo was the first major name to move to the Saudi Pro League when he joined Al-Nassr at the end of last year and is reportedly hugely influential in the kingdom, meaning his anti-Greenwood sentiment is therefore likely to have a large impact on the situation.

The source added: 'Ronaldo is treated as royalty in Saudi and what he says goes."

What's this assumption that they would even take him? They're trying to raise the profile of their league and create positive PR for their country. How would hiring a rapist fit into that?

A lot of nonsense surrounds this guy. It’s the usual rag nonsense: “great player, worth £100m, blah blah blah” He is just a young player with some talent, how much we don’t know.

These cunts have got Arsenal and Brighton in 2 of their next 3.

The Glazers have recognised that Manchester United should be rebranded just like megalomaniac Musk did for Twitter. They asked a highly esteemed marketing consultancy to make proposals and they came up with Shitshow United. So there it is, Shitshow United.

Good job Ronaldo is so well behaved & never had any problems at all with trying to force women to have sex with him against there will & then paying them lots of money to drop the case?...............................

He was still in his overhyped "the next Bobby Charlton" stage of his career. Could have been at Sunderland by now, if someone hadn't kicked the shit out of his girlfriend.

Unfortunately sky are fixated on the old days and can’t grasp that there’s more clubs than the rags to actually talk about,throw in they have to appease the masses of rag supporters who subscribe to sky ..But as you say it’s becoming tedious and boring now ..

It's pandering to a group of gloryhunting picks that's why they get so much coverage and tbh I find it good viewing when they lose :)
