In the aftermath of a victory over Norway, Jorge Jesus addressed Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure from the national-team camp, describing the episode as a misunderstanding rather than an irreparable split.
The coach said the disagreement that led Ronaldo to leave the squad should not be overstated. He also made clear that any return to international duty now rests with the forward himself.
Ronaldo, whose presence remains central whenever the national side gathers, has been left to decide whether he wants to come back after the dispute. Jesus offered no further detail on the incident, but sought to lower the temperature around a situation that had briefly disrupted the camp.
