Media: Ferguson asked Manchester United to buy Ronaldo, but he was more of a symbol in management than real power!

According to a report by British media outlet The Athletic on January 1, they reviewed the inside story of some of United's major events last year. For example, C Ronaldo joined Manchester United, and Ferguson personally called Manchester United to let the management buy C Ronaldo. But the decision to leave Ole Gunnar Solskjaer came from United management, and Ferguson was not involved in the decision. The Athletic also said that although Ferguson asked Manchester United to buy Ronaldo, he was more of a symbol in management than real power!

The Athletic said: Ferguson was involved in Ronaldo's transfer at that time, because Ronaldo could join Manchester City. So Ferguson directly called the Manchester United operator Glazer and forced the Manchester United operator to buy C Ronaldo. Because Ferguson's absolute Manchester United doctrine does not allow Manchester United's star C Ronaldo to join the city's sworn enemy Manchester City.

Here we can combine other reports to analyze why United bought Ronaldo at that time. In fact, Manchester United did not intend to have Cristiano Ronaldo at the beginning, which is their strategy in the past few years, or since C Ronaldo left Manchester United, Manchester United did not intend to let Cristiano Ronaldo return. A strong player like C Luo is estimated to not like to go back.

However, C Ronaldo's glory in Juve fell off a cliff, returning to Juve head coach Allegri began to go to Ronaldo, two reasons why C Ronaldo did not want to stay in Juve, so he wanted to go to Manchester City to lie in the crown. These details have been reported a lot. In short, Manchester United finally took over C Ronaldo under the pressure of Ferguson and C Ronaldo's ability to sell tickets.

The Athletic also reported on the inside story of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's dismissal, when Ferguson did not instruct management to fire him, but rather the Decision of United management itself. Ferguson was sometimes invited by United management to make decisions, but he was not involved in the two decisions of Manchester United to oust Ole Gunnar Solskjaer or to put Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in charge at the time. Moreover, The Athletic also said that although Ferguson is nominally a member of Manchester United's management, he is more of a symbol than a real power, and the real decision of Manchester United is the Glazer family, Woodward, Richard Arnold and Cliff Barty.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was dismissed and Lonnick became the interim head coach, and the most concerned was how he arranged the 36-year-old Ronaldo. On January 2, Manchester United coach Ronnick was interviewed by manchester United's official website and talked about Ronaldo. He said that Ronaldo's body has been good and the maintenance is very professional. Lonnick, who also coached Ibrahimovic, compared Ibrahimovic to Cristiano Ronaldo, arguing that Ibrahimovic was older and that the two were of different types. Regarding whether Ronaldo is a substitute, Lonnick said that he will let Ronaldo rest when Ronaldo needs to rest. As for Cavani, who is considered to have internal competition with C Ronaldo, Lonnick does not want him to leave the team.
