Cristiano Ronaldo left Man United in November 2022, just over a year after sealing a fairytale return to the club from Juventus.
Former captain Gary Neville believes Cristiano Ronaldo's failure to 'adapt' during his second spell at Manchester United played a massive contribution to his exit last year.
The 38-year-old did return to the squad prior to his exit and scored in the 3-0 win over FC Sheriff in the Europa League eight days after his refusal to come on against Spurs. And for Sky Sports pundit Neville, who played with Ronaldo in his first stint in M16, his refusal to adjust led to his departure.
"I think Cristiano should have modified and adapted his leadership style at United to the players in the locker room who needed mentoring, training and levelling up." "He wants to win, he is desperate to win, he wants to score goals and he wants to be the best player in the world, so I think it has been difficult for him, maybe because he has reached the end of his career in teams that did not have the level that he had seen before."
