Cristiano Ronaldo suspended 30 days and fined by Portugal Football Association after leaving national team camp

The Portuguese Football Association's disciplinary council upheld a charge against Cristiano Ronaldo on October 19, 2026, suspending him for 30 days and fining him 255 euros ($285). Ronaldo had left the national team camp in Copenhagen before a Nations League match against Denmark following a rift with coach Jorge Jesus over his role after being an unused substitute against Norway. Ronaldo later apologized and said he remained available for selection after serving his punishment.
