English broadcaster Piers Morgan has made a bold bet, wagering £10,000 that Erik ten Hag will not win either the Champions League or the Premier League during his time as Manchester United manager. Morgan's bet comes after a public exchange between Ten Hag and Cristiano Ronaldo, who criticized the Dutchman's leadership and mentality.
Ronaldo's Criticism
Ronaldo, who left Manchester United for Al Nassr in 2022, recently appeared on the Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast, where he questioned Ten Hag's approach. Ronaldo believes Ten Hag should not publicly downplay Manchester United's chances of competing for top honors, even if it's true.
Ten Hag's Response
Ten Hag dismissed Ronaldo's comments, attributing them to his distance from the day-to-day realities of Manchester United. However, Morgan, a self-proclaimed Ronaldo fan, took issue with Ten Hag's response.
The Bet
Morgan took to social media to announce his bet, writing: "Ronaldo won 3 Premier League trophies and a Champions League trophy at United. I'll bet Ten Hag £10,000 to charity he never wins either at United." The bet highlights Morgan's confidence in Ronaldo's assessment and his skepticism of Ten Hag's ability to deliver success at Manchester United.
