The British newspaper The Mirror has named the role of the Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo in the departure of the Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer from the post of the head coach of Manchester United. The article is available on the website of the publication.
It is noted that the leadership of the “red devils”, when deciding to terminate the contract with the Norwegian specialist, took into account the mood of a number of players. In particular, 36-year-old Ronaldo has expressed dissatisfaction with the team’s performance in recent weeks.
Solskjaer’s departure became known earlier on Sunday, November 21. Michael Carrick has been named acting manager of Manchester United.
Solskjaer’s last game at United’s helm was against Watford. The Red Devils suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 1: 4. After the meeting, the leadership of the Mankunians held an emergency meeting, where it was decided to dismiss Solskjaer.
It was also reported that Ronaldo is not happy with the team’s performance. The forward will not play for the club if United fail to make it to the Champions League at the end of the season. After 12 matches, Manchester United are in seventh place in the standings.
