The decision followed several days of tension after Ronaldo was an unused substitute in Portugal’s 2-1 Nations League win over Norway and went directly to the tunnel after the final whistle. He then missed the team’s final training session before facing Denmark, while federation president Pedro Proença traveled to Copenhagen amid uncertainty over the captain’s situation.

Head coach Jorge Jesus denied a rift with Ronaldo after the Norway match.
