Cristiano Ronaldo has been suspended for 30 days and fined €255 by the Portuguese Football Federation after leaving the national team camp following a dispute with head coach Jorge Jesus.
The federation’s disciplinary council upheld the charge against the 41-year-old forward, finding that he intentionally committed an offence under Article 160(1) of its regulations. The Hindu reported that Ronaldo admitted the underlying facts in a formal statement and that his clean disciplinary record and admission helped reduce the punishment.
Ronaldo left Portugal’s base in Copenhagen before a Nations League match against Denmark after remaining an unused substitute against Norway. He accused Jesus of breaking promises about his role and playing time; Jesus denied that an agreement had been made but said Ronaldo could return to the squad.
Ronaldo later apologised for leaving his teammates and for not acknowledging supporters after the Norway match. He said he would accept any punishment and remained available for selection afterward.
Reports differed on how the suspension would be applied. The Hindu said it began on Oct. 1, and The National said it took effect from the day of the Denmark match, meaning much of the ban had already been served and Ronaldo was expected to be available during Portugal’s November fixtures. Al Jazeera and The Irish Times said the federation’s statement did not specify whether time served under a provisional suspension would count toward the 30 days. Ronaldo can appeal the decision, according to The Hindu.
