🔻Cristiano Ronaldo’s absence from the Portugal national team training session on Tuesday in Malmö, Sweden—before their match against Denmark in the UEFA Nations League—has generated many remarks and questions.

🔹After being substituted in the first match against Wales and completely sitting on the bench in the game against Norway, Ronaldo left the pitch during the team celebration without joining it, which pointed to tensions.

🔹In Tuesday’s training session, the 41-year-old Portugal captain was seen speaking with Jorge Jesus while holding a coffee, and then left the stadium without taking part in the group training session.

🔹The Portuguese Football Federation said the reason for his departure was the lack of proper equipment for individual training at the stadium, but media reports link the incident to his dissatisfaction with being benched.

🔹Rumors that he did not accept a second consecutive benching have prompted the federation to act. Pedro Proença, president of the Portuguese federation, has gone to Denmark to resolve the issue in an emergency meeting with Jesus and Ronaldo. Ronaldo, who has so far remained silent, has only posted a photo featuring the Portugal flag on social media networks.
