Sporting Lisbon's manager Ruben Amorim has insisted that 'everyone' at his club likes Cristiano Ronaldo following his interview with Piers Morgan, in which he criticised Manchester United and Erik ten Hag.
Ronaldo was unavailable for United's match against Fulham on Sunday afternoon due to illness, but he managed to make headlines and overshadow the 2-1 victory in London when a bombshell interview emerged later that day.
In the teaser of the interview with Morgan, which will be released across Wednesday and Thursday, Ronaldo said that he's got no respect for Ten Hag, while he criticised Wayne Rooney, Ralf Rangnick and how the club is operated under the Glazers.

It's expected that Ronaldo has played his last game at United and he's recently been linked with a return to Sporting Lisbon, which has led the Portuguese club's manager, Amorim, to be asked about his situation and the interview.
"I've been asked this question a thousand times. Ronaldo is a Manchester United player", Amorim told Ojogo. "Everyone at Sporting likes him, there's not much to say. He himself says he wants to do things in peace to follow his future.
"He will decide his future. I won't be here telling you how things are for me. In the summer it became obvious that things don't all pass me by. There's the club, there's the structure. He's a Manchester United player."
