The Portugal head coach has demonstratively distanced himself from the emotional accusations, displaying conspicuous composure.

Details: Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus gave an extremely laconic response to reports that Cristiano Ronaldo had refused to play for the team under his management.

Responding to persistent questions from journalists outside the federation's offices, the 72-year-old coach said that he had read the forward's public statement. The manager stressed that now, just as on any other working day, he was heading to the headquarters of the Portuguese Football Federation to work and focus exclusively on the interests of the national team, adding that he had nothing more to say.

In doing so, the manager made it clear to the public that he has no intention of giving in to pressure from the 41-year-old veteran or resigning, and will continue preparing the national team for its upcoming international fixtures as normal.

It should be noted that the conflict between Jorge Jesus and Cristiano Ronaldo has become the deepest crisis in Portuguese football in recent years, causing a split among supporters and a walkout by the national team's all-time leading scorer.

Reminder: All of Jorge Jesus' scandals: the man who got rid of Ronaldo and Neymar
