Cristiano Ronaldo left the Portuguese national team camp in Copenhagen on Wednesday, September 30, on the eve of their Nations League match against Denmark. The player announced his decision on Instagram, without elaborating on the reasons. He indicated that he would speak « in due course. »
A decision following the coach’s press conference
In his message, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner explains that he made this decision after the press conference of the coach, Jorge Jesus, and a conversation with the president of the Portuguese Football Federation.
This departure comes after Ronaldo was left on the bench during Sunday’s match against Norway. Jorge Jesus denied any incident involving the 41-year-old striker.
The reasons remain unknown.
The player did not specify what led him to leave the group. His announcement concerns his departure from the current training camp; it does not, in itself, constitute an announcement of international retirement.
