The split between Cristiano Ronaldo and the national team has now reached Portuguese politics. Parliament have an urgent message for the football association, according to Portuguese media. Wednesday evening brought the row between head coach Jorge Jesus and Ronaldo to a head. The star took his private jet and left the camp after falling out with the head coach. Ronaldo said that "the truth" will come out. Not long after, O Jogo claimed it meant the end of Ronaldo's international career, but the door now appears to be slightly ajar again. Spanish newspaper MARCA reported on Saturday that the Portuguese football association are pushing for a reconciliation between Jesus and CR7. Now several Portuguese media outlets say politics are also getting involved. The football association have reportedly been told to bring Ronaldo and Jesus back together. A meeting is said to be due to take place next week. For more than twenty years, Ronaldo has been one of Portugal's most important faces and his performances have given him enormous symbolic value for the country. A definitive split between the superstar and the national team would not only have sporting consequences but, according to the Portuguese reports, could also damage the international image of the team and the football association.UEFA Nations League APortugal crestPortugal4 Oct 202618:45Norway crestNorwayPrime Minister LuÃs Montenegro is therefore said to have already made contact with those involved. The 2030 World Cup, which will be staged in Portugal, Spain and Morocco, also makes the situation even more sensitive. For years, Ronaldo has been seen as one of the main figureheads of Portuguese football and could also play an important commercial and promotional role around the World Cup.https://www.goal.com/en/news/cristiano-ronaldo-causes-unprecedented-situation-in-portugal-politics-step-in/blt472767e1a23fadd6
Are they planning to script 2030 Portugal for Penaldo like they did Qatar for Pissi?
bump
who?
>>158025897Lmao, it's actually insane how far apart the reputations of Messi and Ronaldo are
these politicians are so patheticthey should be supporting the manager to cut out the cancer that is cr7best thing the manager can do is stand his ground, not give an inch, get (((fired))), and become a tv pundit in portugal. if no portuguese (((tv channels))) will have him, then do it in brazil. i assume he only speaks portuguese fluently. if he speaks english, he could become a pundit in england or the usa for portugal matches. completely humiliate ronaldo, the portugal team, their FA, and the politicians for supporting the cancer and firing him. dont accept a payoff because theyll (((gag))) him. take the bastards to court while humiliating them on tv instead.
>>158029557stop seething ronaldo is the reason ppl even know about portugal he is bigger then this whole country history he is the most important figure there and they should give him a wel send off his team mates should work execlusivly to make him shine and score he can still lead them to more glory they are nothign without him
>>158025897>the Portuguese football association are pushing for a reconciliation between Jesus and CR7Yeah I know it's just the name of the coach, but this is still funny to read.
I've never had much of an opinion on Ronaldo one way or another, but the fact that Ronaldo's teammates are getting all this abuse online for him *choosing* to leave the NT and he hasn't lifted a finger to tell his fans to knock it off really makes him look like an asshole.

>>158031538wrong thread
goal.com is actually not a credible news source when it comes to stuff like this. I would prefer it to be true but I doubt it.
>>158031668They are quoting MARCA for what it's worth

>Portuguese football association are pushing for a reconciliation between Jesus and CR7.he brings them so much money, they don't give a fuck about football. he's a living sponsor
>>158029503Reminder that the reputation of Messi dropped to unknown lows after his bitchy behaviour in his second WC final fiasco, really on pair with this aging diva statpadder
>>158035145I was reading an interview to a local marketing "expert" about this a couple days ago, and he predicted that without Ronaldo the FPF is set to lose ~90% of its current income because most of the sponsors and merchandising are aimed at the international market that only watches Portugal because of Ronaldo. It sucks but it is what it is.
>>158035339But he is already filthy rich. How can he allow this to happen?? He is like one of those lotto winners that end up penniless in three years
>>158035381Don't know how it is over at the euroswamps, but management thinking short term and never preparing for the long term is par for the course over here
>>158035493Same doomed as Spain. Iberian peninsula is a thing on its own. Sad because you iberians are amongst the best people in Europe
>>158036065Could be because we both faced dictatorships at nearly the same time, and most of the older managers and CEOs grew up in that era. I'm not sure of how Franco handled Spain during that time, but in here Salazar was terrified of the population revolting against him, so his regime worked hard on both keeping the population as stupid and uneducated as possible, but also by building a whole propaganda campaign that being poor and simple was actually a virtue, so naturally our management has among the lowest education and financial literacy rates in Europe. Even today that mentality still seeps into younger generations a bit, so that's not something that will go away overnight.
>>158036065Shut the fuck up you clueless faggot, don't post again
>>158036575You are not ethnically german. I can smell you from here, you cockroach.>>158036554God save the brave portuguese people and give them strength to live in peace and prosperity.
>>158025897Never going to happen. JJ has a massive ego himself, if Ronaldo is forced to return, he will resign from the national team.
i hope we lose every single game if that baby is allowed back, guess im rooting for ingerland cam on
>>158037010It is, overall, being an awesome set up for the SPM 2030 wc. Now with all the trouble in Ceuta Spain doesnt want Morocco anywhere close to organizing anything together, plus Portugal NT is imploding due to Cristinas ego. We will see how all this unfolds. So far is it tasting delicious.Oh, dont forget Argentinas revenge. There are millions in Spain, making any Argentina game vs Spain a real derby. Top football thrill, if you ask me.
>>158029681The only real trophy Portugal had was with Cristiano on the bench and the only top 3 in a world cup was without CR9
I have a bit of sympathy for Ronaldo. It's not been easy for me to admit that footy night with the lads has been getting that little bit more difficult over the past ... 2 years or so. But I'm not about to call them all a bunch of twats about it to compensate for my own anxieties.
>>158037010JJ should win tonight's match and immediately resign
>>158029557>i assume he only speaks portuguese fluently.AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Portugal could be a champion but thank you for fielding Ronaldo for another cup lmao what fucking stupid leadership
>>158054176Religion dogma, set them back behind anglo protestants and is the same reason argentina inst usa 2.0 despite being the same.Mixing with indians, refuse imperialims, dont invade your neightbours, catolic shit.
>>158025897Banana country
Looks like the opinion on him is shifting
Ronaldo is the GOAT, it's disrespectful how he's been treated. This Jorge something is a nobody, no one ever heard of him, he's nothing.
I dont get the whole "WE HAVE TO PLAY HIM EVERY MINUTE EVER FOR BRANDING AND MONEY" argument. Can't be good for the brand if you're consistently the worst performer on the pitch and the reason your team cant beat anyone stronger than a squad of goat herders. Especially now that the younger players are stepping up and outright proving that there's life after Ronaldo.
>>158054926why do you want to ruin the legacy of the greatest player in history
>>158054718So Cristiano can keep playing for Portugal until he wants?
Why did the coach even pick him? As soon as he took control of the national team he shouldn't even have called CR up to the squad at all. A clean break. This is a needlessly messy break.
>>158054988My black ass ain't ruining anything by saying shit on the internet.
It's official: Jorge Jesus cucked outThread about it here: >>158053040Come make fun of Portugal for bending the knee to Penaldo
