After the full interview that Cristiano Ronaldo had with Piers Morgan was made public, Manchester United stated that they have "initiated appropriate steps."

Even though Ronaldo was sick and unable to play in United's match against Fulham on Sunday afternoon, he still managed to make headlines and cast a shadow over United's 2-1 victory in London by giving a bombshell interview later that day, which overshadowed the match.

The second half of the interview was shown on television on Thursday night, and the organization has provided an update on the player's condition. According to a source close to United, the club is attempting to bring the procedure to a conclusion as quickly as possible before disclosing the results of the investigation.

The following is an excerpt from the official statement that was released: "Manchester United has this morning initiated appropriate steps in response to Cristiano Ronaldo's recent media interview." We will refrain from making any further comments until such time as this procedure has been completed."

"Manchester United notes the media coverage regarding an interview by Cristiano Ronaldo," the statement that United issued on Monday read. "Manchester United promises to 'consider the full facts' before releasing the full version of the interview." After gathering all of the relevant information, the club will deliberate over how best to respond.

The second half of the season, as well as continuing the momentum, belief, and togetherness that has been built up among the players, the manager, the staff, and the fans, will continue to be our primary focus as we move forward.

In the midst of his preparations, Ronaldo is getting ready to play for Portugal at the World Cup in Qatar.
