Cristiano Ronaldo free transfer blow as Inter Miami become latest club to distance themselves from ex-Man Utd star
INTER MIAMI have distanced themselves from signing Cristiano Ronaldo, according to reports.
The 37-year-old is without a club after his Manchester United contract was terminated earlier this week.
Ronaldo launched an attack on his former club during an explosive sit down with Piers Morgan last week.
The Portugal ace slammed United for not moving on since Alex Ferguson left, while he also said he can’t respect Erik ten Hag and admitted he feels betrayed by the club.
As a result, the legend saw his Old Trafford contract RIPPED UP and is now a free agent.
Prior to his interview, SunSport exclusively revealed that David Beckham’s Inter Miami were lining up a sensational January move for Ronaldo.

Earlier this month, Sporting boss Ruben Amorim revealed that he’s still a popular figure at the Portuguese club.

He said: “Everyone at Sporting likes him, there’s not much to say.
“He himself says he wants to do things in peace to follow his future. He will decide his future.
“I won’t be here telling you how things are for me.”
