B24 published a statement in which Cristiano Ronaldo presented his version of the misunderstanding with the national coach and his exit from the training camp. The forward stated that, after the 2026 World Cup, he had prepared a farewell letter, but the president of the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) had asked him to reconsider his departure. He also mentioned that he had supported the choice of the current coach. Ronaldo stated that the coach had presented him with a plan for his participation in the national team and that, in an initial conversation, he had suggested that he not travel for the matches in Norway and Denmark. According to the player, he rejected the proposal as he believed it would not be a good example for the captain to stay in Portugal. He noted that Simão Coutinho, sports director of Al Nassr, had accompanied the discussions. Regarding the match in Norway, Ronaldo reported that the coach asked him if he was available to play for 30 minutes. He said he accepted, despite recovering physically, but warmed up from halftime and did not end up playing. The player stated that, in a meeting 48 hours later, the coach agreed to publicly explain the agreed plan and acknowledged that it was a mistake to make him warm up without putting him on the field. According to Ronaldo, the coach had promised to do so at a press conference but had not fulfilled the agreement. The forward said he had validated notes for the conference, in which the coach would acknowledge proposing the plan, affirm that Ronaldo had accepted it without questioning the options, and admit that he would not make him warm up again under those circumstances. Ronaldo stated that the coach should also recognize the importance of the player, who had represented the national team for 24 years, and argue that problems should not be invented around his reaction after the game. Ronaldo said he decided to leave the training camp because he felt the coach had broken his word for the second time. He apologized to the fans for not greeting them after the game and to his teammates for leaving, taking responsibility for both decisions. He added that he accepted being punished by the FPF without mitigating circumstances, as he was the captain. The player stated that he would continue to be available to compete for Portugal after serving the suspension, as long as he was physically well and playing for the club. He also said that he hoped to have one or more farewell matches, but that his priority was to continue competing and winning for the national team. #CristianoRonaldo #SeleçãoNacional #Futebol (translated)

The Planet of Football reported, citing ESPN Brazil and journalist Bruno Andrade, that Cristiano Ronaldo did not intend to return to the Portuguese national team while Jorge Jesus was the coach. According to the publication, the player was upset about not receiving a public apology, although Jesus claimed behind the scenes that this was not part of the agreement between the two. The publication reported that Ronaldo and Jesus had prepared remarks for the press conference after the striker did not take the field against Norway. The material included praise for Ronaldo, the statement that the coach counted on him for the future, and acknowledgment of his influence on the team, but it did not include an apology. Jesus would have followed the agreement, but Ronaldo was still expecting the apology, and the attempt at reconciliation did not progress.

Cláudia Teixeira held Jorge Jesus responsible for Cristiano Ronaldo's situation. She wrote that the player had always made it clear that he would leave when he was no longer wanted and that, in her opinion, he had not asked for privileges, but respect. The author considered it disrespectful to call Ronaldo up just to leave him on the bench for 90 minutes and to make him warm up for a long time without putting him on the field. She said that the problem was not the player being on the bench, but being called up without a real intention to treat him with the respect he deserved, and stated that they tried to humiliate him. Teixeira wrote that Ronaldo had carried Portugal on his back for years and had given everything for the national team. She said that if she were in his place, she would not attend, considering that dignity was worth more than a call-up. She added that anyone who did not respect the player but continued to benefit from his name, image, and impact did not deserve his presence. #CristianoRonaldo #JorgeJesus #Respeito (translated)
