“He was never the problem at Manchester United. He was always the solution,” Telles asserted, countering claims made by some fans and club executives during that turbulent period.

Ronaldo returned to United in 2021 amid high expectations, but despite his personal success, the team struggled for consistency. With poor performances on the pitch and internal issues off it, some pointed fingers at the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, suggesting he disrupted the squad’s dynamics. However, Telles’ comments highlight a different perspective, emphasizing Ronaldo’s leadership and commitment.
