  • Cristiano Ronaldo made an interesting comment about his future at Manchester United amid ongoing speculation
  • The Portugal star claimed it is “impossible for media not to talk about him”
  • He also seemed to play down reports that he is keen on leaving Old Trafford to seek a side playing in the Champions League

Cristiano Ronaldo made a rare comment on an Instagram page which was talking about his future, sending his fans into meltdown.

By now, it is public knowledge that the Portugal star wants to leave Manchester United as he made his intentions clear earlier in July.

As it has been widely reported, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s future is yet to find the perfect suitor, with another of European giants snubbing a potential move.

This week, it was claimed that during crunch talks with the club, Ronaldo made his stance clear and not even Sir Alex Ferguson could convince him to change his mind.

“Without me, press makes no money”

Well, those who are wondering what Ronaldo’s take on the whole issue is will not ponder much longer as the 37-year old used his Instagram account to savagely play down reports in the press.

Despite being the most followed human being on Instagram, Ronaldo somehow found his way in the comment section of one of the fan pages responding to claims about his future.

The initial post claimed that Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes told the club his client wanted to leave.

But in the comments, Ronaldo was blunt with his response as he slammed media, saying:

“Impossible not to talk about me one day. Otherwise the press makes no money. You know that if you don’t lie you can’t get people’s attention. Keep going that one day you get some news right.”

What next for Ronaldo?

As it stands, Ronaldo is yet to feature under Erik Ten Hag and United are unwilling to sell him.
