Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly been suspended by the Portuguese Football Federation following an incident involving the national team’s head coach, Jorge Jesus.

According to the UK’s Mirror, the 41-year-old forward faces a possible suspension ranging from one to six months after allegedly leaving the national team camp following a disagreement with Jesus.

The report stated that the suspension was triggered automatically under the federation’s disciplinary regulations, with a disciplinary council expected to determine the final duration of the punishment.

Ronaldo has reportedly apologised publicly and acknowledged that his conduct warranted disciplinary action.

The length of the ban will determine how long the Al-Nassr forward could be unavailable for Portugal, depending on the scope of the federation’s eventual decision.

However, the final sanction had yet to be determined at the time of the report.
