Ronaldo commented on the sudden departure from Portugal

Cristiano Ronaldo has confirmed that he has decided to leave Portugal ahead of the UEFA Nations League match against Denmark, but promised to explain it later. He wrote about this on Instagram (owned by Meta, the company is recognized as extremist and banned in Russia).

After the press conference of the head coach of the national team and a conversation with the President of the Portuguese Football Federation, I have decided to leave the training camp of the team. In due course, I will tell the truth to all the Portuguese people about the reasons for my departure from the national team to which I have always been loyal.

The Portuguese will play the Danes in Copenhagen on October 1. Ronaldo remained in the reserve in the previous match with the Norwegians on September 27 (2: 1) and, according to head coach Jorge Jesouch, was not planned in the first team for the next match.

Ronaldo left the stadium shortly after a press conference by Rzesus, who claimed there was no conflict between him and the player.
