Piers Morgan has insisted that signing Cristiano Ronaldo is ‘exactly’ what Arsenal need to beat Manchester City to the Premier League title.
The TV host carried out an explosive tell-all interview with the Manchester United star on Sunday night, in which Ronaldo accused the club of ‘betraying’ him and blasted manager Erik ten Hag, adding he doesn’t ‘respect’ the Dutchman.
And Morgan urged the table-topping Gunners, five points ahead of City as the World Cup approaches, to capitalise on the situation and snap up the Portuguese forward in January to bolster their title bid.

After a TV presenter in Ireland said: ‘Presumably Piers Morgan is hoping Arsenal sign Ronaldo and play him up top in every game,’ Morgan responded on Twitter.
He posted: ‘Yes, actually. He’s exactly what we need.. @Cristiano & @gabrieljesus9 would take us to the title.’
The controversial tweet, posted at 11pm on Sunday night, has already received 15,000 likes.
Ronaldo’s astonishing attack looks certain to end his Old Trafford career. He accused Ten Hag and United executives of trying to force him out of the club, saying of Ten Hag: ‘I don’t have respect for him because he doesn’t show respect for me.
‘Some people, they don’t want me here – not only the coach but the other two or three guys. Not only this year, but last year too. Honestly, I shouldn’t say that. But listen, I don’t care. People should listen to the truth. Yes, I feel betrayed.’
