Ruben Neves has claimed Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo looks in "spectacular shape" for the World Cup.
Ronaldo has scored just three goals this season and two came against FC Sheriff (a rebound and a penalty). Erik ten Hag has not handed him regular starts and that led the player to speak in a bombshell interview with Piers Morgan this week.
After the 37-year-old criticised the club and Ten Hag among other claims, United are considering the possibility of terminating Ronaldo's contract and they are currently looking at taking legal action for a possible breach of contract.
A statement from the club on Friday confirmed they have 'initiated appropriate steps' after the final part of Ronaldo's interview was aired on Thursday night and it's almost certain that the forward has played his last match at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo will play at the World Cup, though, and it seems like he's got a point to prove at the tournament in Qatar, which Wolves' Neves clearly thinks he will make, as the midfielder explained when asked about the player's interview.
"From what I've seen in training, he's in spectacular shape," Neves told a press conference on Sunday. "He doesn't worry us at all, we as a team know perfectly well what we need to work on so that each individual stands out on gameday.
"If we're good as a team, Cristiano will be phenomenal."
Ronaldo is 38 in February and this is his last World Cup.

The truth is that he has so far played rubbish footbal for United, no denying about this. ETH is absolutely correct to bench him & look beyond him at club level. After the interview it all over for him. No way back, even if he wins World club with Portugal. If you can't respect the team & manager, then it is better to leave.
and yet no one match his records ....you called 32 goals contribution a rubbish .....you are absolute hater

That's it, some fans will come talking nonsense at the end of the day, when TenHang made a statement that, 'Ronaldo is not part of his plan, nobody made headlines out of it, and the Manchester board where there, also when TenHang started benching Ronaldo just Because he went to take care of his sick daughter that still later died the press was there, everything was still cool with them thinking its OK with Ronaldo, now he has spoken out his mind, because he can take it, you guys saying he is wrong, How!!! Ronaldo is is made already He worked for it If you like, say nonsense Ronaldo will still be Ronaldo If everyone can be like Ronaldo to express how they feel, the world could have been a better place of peace.
