Cristiano Ronaldo, the Manchester United forward, has spoken out against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s dismissal as the club’s manager.
On Sunday, United fired Solskjaer and appointed Michael Carrick as acting manager while they look for a permanent replacement.
Solskjaer was fired after a string of dismal performances, including losses to Aston Villa, Liverpool, Manchester City, and the most humiliating of all, a 4-1 loss to Watford on Saturday.
When Ronaldo originally arrived at Old Trafford 12 years ago, the 48-year-old was the club’s main striker, and he was instrumental in bringing the Portuguese back in the summer.

“He’s been my striker when I first came to Old Trafford and he’s been my coach since I came back to Man. United,” Ronaldo tweeted on Monday, 24 hours after the Norwegian was dismissed.
“But most of all, Ole is an outstanding human being. I wish him the best in whatever his life has reserved for him. Good luck, my friend! You deserve it.”
