"It's my decision" - Manchester United star responds to Cristiano Ronaldo's explosive interview

"It's my decision" - Manchester United star responds to Cristiano Ronaldo's explosive interview

He was a man of few words.

Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof has been quizzed on Cristiano Ronaldo's situation at the club after his eye-opening interview.

Ronaldo's incendiary interview with Piers Morgan is set to be released in two parts, the first being broadcast on Wednesday evening.

The Portuguese star criticised senior officials at the club, as well as former players and managers and how the club operates.

United responded to the clips released by Morgan earlier this week in an official statement where they reiterated that their focus is on the second half of the season.

"Manchester United notes the media coverage regarding an interview by Cristiano Ronaldo.

"The club will consider its response after the full facts have been established. Our focus remains on preparing for the second half of the season and continuing the momentum, belief and togetherness being built among the players, manager, staff, and fans," the statement read.

Ronaldo's United teammate Lindelof refused to answer questions, however, when asked about the Portuguese's outburst.

What did Lindelof say?

The Swedish defender was asked for his thoughts on the explosive interview but told Swedish outlet Fotbollskanalen: "I do not know. I will not answer that question.

"You get to take the next question. It's my decision [not to talk about it]."

In just one clip from Morgan's Uncensored show, Ronaldo said he felt "betrayed" by those at the club: "I felt betrayed. People should listen to the truth.

"Yes, I felt betrayed, and I felt like some people don't want me here, not only this year but last year, too."
