Cristiano Ronaldo's extremely high-profile falling out with Manchester United appears to have spilled over into the Portuguese national team with Bruno Fernandes offering him a much less friendly greeting than might be expected.

The Portugal captain has grabbed all the headlines in the past day after an incendiary interview with Piers Morgan was drip fed to the public over Sunday and Monday evenings.

In the interview, among other claims, Ronaldo said he did not 'respect' current United boss Erik ten Hag while also taking aim at the club's facilities and their place in the football pecking order - claiming they had fallen below the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City. He also expressed a belief that he had been 'betrayed' by the club.

.Fernandes, United's de-facto vice-captain, appeared to have taken issue with the interview as he greeted Ronaldo with some degree of frostiness after linking up with the national side on Monday.

In the clip, released on Portugal's social media channels showing each of the 26 players arriving ahead of the World Cup which kicks off this week with Qatar-Ecuador on Sunday, Fernandes can be seen walking past Ronaldo.

Fernandes put an arm on Ronaldo as he walked past him to put his bag down in the locker next to his before trying to turn away to face the rest of the dressing room.

Ronaldo very clearly offered out his hand first - which Fernandes, after a brief second of seemingly wondering whether he should accept it, meets with his own before saying something to him and turning away.

The recalcitrant forward was left standing there appearing to wonder why he had just essentially been snubbed by his club and international team-mate.

Reacting to the clip on social media, most supporters appeared to take the side of Fernandes.
