The ongoing drama surrounding 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of the Portuguese national team, appears to be hastening the end of his international career. Just an hour before the pre-match training session ahead of the game against Denmark, head coach Jorge Jesus insisted at a press conference that there was no conflict, explaining that the forward’s absence from the field earlier was solely due to his unique recovery schedule.
In an effort to resolve the situation, the head of the federation, Pedro Proença, arrived at the team’s camp ahead of schedule. However, feeling slighted by the lack of attention and his role as a substitute, Cristiano Ronaldo disregarded the agreements and left the stadium in Copenhagen by car, subsequently arranging a private jet for his departure, according to L’Equipe.
