New conflict! Jorge Jesus attacks Ronaldo
The conflict between Cristiano Ronaldo and Jorge Jesus has taken another explosive turn.
Details: Luís Miguel Henrique, the lawyer of Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus, has launched a scathing attack on Cristiano Ronaldo. In a statement shared by Cabine Desportiva, Henrique harshly criticized the legendary striker's behavior and his obsession with individual statistics.
The lawyer did not hold back, suggesting that Ronaldo himself is damaging the legacy he has built throughout his extraordinary career:
“Cristiano Ronaldo, through his actions, his behavior and his obsession with certain statistical metrics, is achieving what none of his opponents ever managed to achieve: destroying our ability to remember all the good he has given us.
He increasingly surrounds himself with people who tell him what he wants to hear and less and less with those who tell him what he needs to hear.
That is the fate of gods and autocrats: they end up alone on Olympus, surrounded by mirrors.”
These comments come amid an ongoing dispute between Ronaldo and Portugal's national team coach. The controversy erupted after the forward remained on the bench against Norway and subsequently left the national team camp. Ronaldo later apologized for his departure, while the Portuguese Football Federation opened disciplinary proceedings against him.
It is worth noting that Cristiano Ronaldo remains the all-time record holder in men's international football for both goals and appearances, having scored 146 goals in 234 matches for Portugal.
