Cristiano Ronaldo, 41, has been provisionally suspended by the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) following disciplinary proceedings initiated after he walked out on the national team. Ronaldo apologized to supporters and criticized Portugal coach Jorge Jesus, stating he would accept any punishment. The incident occurred after he was an unused substitute against Norway on September 27 and then learned he would not start against Denmark on October 1. The former Real Madrid and Manchester United attacker, Portugal's all-time top goalscorer, has returned to club action with Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr, scoring in their 3-0 Saudi Pro League victory against Diriyah. Ronaldo affirmed his availability for the national team once any suspension is served, despite the ongoing controversy. Portugal qualified for the Nations League quarter-finals.
