Cristiano Ronaldo leaves Portugal camp and vows to reveal reasons for exit

The 41-year-old started the Nations League win over Wales last week but was left out of Sunday’s win in Norway.

CRISTIANO RONALDO HAS left Portugal’s training camp and promised to “tell the truth about the reasons that led to my departure”.

The 41-year-old started the Nations League win over Wales last week but was an unused substitute for Sunday’s victory in Norway.

And on Wednesday night, the night before a game against Denmark, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward said he had left the team’s camp.

“Following the national team manager’s press conference, and after a conversation with the President of the Portuguese Football Federation, I decided to leave the national team’s training camp,” Ronaldo wrote on Instagram.

“In due course, I will tell the Portuguese people the truth about the reasons behind my departure from the national team, to which I have always been dedicated.”

“Now is the time to wish good luck to Portugal and to all my teammates, without exception.”
