“I Wish The Best For Manchester United Because This Is A Club I Still Love” Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al Nassr, has expressed confidence that things will improve for Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim despite the club’s struggles this season.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, speaking at the Globe Soccer Awards, assured fans that the tough times at United are temporary, saying, “I knew it would be tough and they would continue the storm, but the storm will finish and the sun will rise.”
United’s season has been far from smooth, with the team currently languishing in 14th place in the Premier League following their 2-0 loss to Wolves on Boxing Day.
Despite the club’s ongoing challenges, Ronaldo remains optimistic about Amorim’s ability to turn things around.
“I hope things will be good with him,” Ronaldo said. “I wish the best for Manchester United because this is a club I still love.”
Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey has opened up about a difficult period in his career, revealing that he almost stepped away from football.
Speaking during a recent interview, Bassey shared that he once made a personal promise to himself to quit pursuing football professionally if he failed to secure a spot at a professional club.
“I remember being 15 and going into my final year, and I told myself that if I didn’t get into a professional club, I would quit football. It was that simple,” he said.
“I would just stop pursuing it seriously and only play for fun. Thank God I eventually got a club, because I honestly don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
It has been reported that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fined Egypt $5,000 following their clash with Zimbabwe for failing to manage post-match media obligations.
It was noted that after the match, the Egyptian players ignored the media. This action was said to be a violation of CAF’s media regulations, which led to the fine being imposed.
Head of the Super Eagles, Eric Chelle, shared that the big-name players on the team are not happy about being benched.
He recalled when he took out Samuel Chukwueze during the match against Tanzania.
“Yes, of course, we’ve in this team a lot of big names. They are competitors; they aren’t happy when they go to the bench,” Chelle said at his post-match interview.”
“My job is to make choices, and we’re playing a 4-4-2 diamond, and at this moment I feel we have to protect the wing.”
