Midfielder Bernardo Silva said this Saturday that he did not understand how Cristiano Ronaldo’s situation at Manchester United is being talked about so much, when the Portuguese soccer team has a World Cup to play in a few days.
“I don’t see a big problem. They only spoke at press conferences, when Portugal has a World Cup to play, so I don’t understand your questions,” said the Portuguese international, already at the end of the first press conference held in Qatar, after being plagued with questions about the captain of the national team, mainly from the foreign press.
At that time, in the printing room of the Al-Shahaniya SC training center completely ‘packed’ with journalists, Bernardo Silva has said that “the news from England has nothing to do with the selection” not with him, but with him Cristiano Ronaldo.
“I’m not a Manchester United player and, even if I were, I wouldn’t answer. We’re focused on the national team and not on Cristiano’s club. I see him motivated, focused on our team and he’s one more”. to help our team,” said Bernardo Silva, who plays for United’s rival Manchester City.
This week Cristiano Ronaldo came into conflict with Manchester United, after an interview was published in which the Portuguese striker “swept away” with the English club and with the coach Erik ten Hag, and meanwhile news emerged in England that the ‘reds’ Devils’ intend to terminate the contract of the 37-year-old man.
After the press conference, the Portuguese team will carry out its first training session in Qatar, continuing its preparation for its debut in Group H of the World Cup, on November 24, against Ghana, at the 974 Stadium, in Doha.
It will be followed by duels with Uruguay, on November 28, at the Lusail Stadium, and with Paulo Bento’s South Korea, on December 2, at the Ciudad Educación Stadium.
The 22nd edition of the World Cup starts on Sunday, with the duel between the host Qatar and Ecuador, for group A, and ends on December 18.
