Forty-one-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo departed the Portugal national team's training camp in Denmark, hours after head coach Jorge Jesus announced he would not start the UEFA Nations League match against Denmark. Jesus confirmed Gonçalo Ramos would play in attack instead, denying any conflict and stating lineup decisions are his. Ronaldo confirmed his exit on social media, following a conversation with Portuguese Football Federation president Pedro Proença, and promised to disclose his reasons to the Portuguese people later. This decision came after Ronaldo was an unused substitute in Portugal's 2-1 win over Norway, an unprecedented occurrence in his 18-year national team career where he was available but did not play. He later missed a training session in Copenhagen. Ronaldo is Portugal's record holder with 146 goals in 234 matches.
