Rio Ferdinand Urges Jorge Jesus to Apologise to Cristiano Ronaldo
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has urged Portugal coach Jorge Jesus to publicly apologise to Cristiano Ronaldo over the handling of the captain's role in the national team. Ronaldo was reportedly left unused in Portugal's 2-1 UEFA Nations League win over Norway on September 27 before leaving the squad's camp three days later. Ferdinand said the dispute could have been avoided through clearer communication. He argued that Ronaldo can still contribute to Portugal, whether as a starter or substitute, but said the coaching staff must clearly define the 41-year-old forward's role.
