Vitinha Calls for Ronaldo's Return to Portugal Team
Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Vitinha has urged Cristiano Ronaldo to return to the Portugal national team, expressing hope for a resolution to Ronaldo's reported dispute with head coach Jorge Jesus. Vitinha made these comments after scoring in PSG’s 4-2 Champions League victory over Manchester City.
He described Portugal’s recent international break as “chaotic” and emphasized that the squad desires Ronaldo's return. Vitinha stated, “I hope Cristiano Ronaldo returns with the national team.
All I can do is hope he comes back and that everything is okay.” The uncertainty surrounding Ronaldo's international future stems from a fallout with Jesus during Portugal’s Nations League campaign, where Ronaldo felt frustrated after not being introduced in a match against Norway. This incident reportedly deepened tensions, leading Ronaldo to accuse Jesus of “betrayal.” Following this, the Portuguese football federation suspended Ronaldo after he left the national team camp.
Ronaldo's sister, Elma Aveiro, indicated that the dispute could have lasting effects on his international career.
