Jorge Jesus Says Door Is Open For Ronaldo's Return To Portugal Squad

Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus says Cristiano Ronaldo remains free to return to the national team whenever he chooses, downplaying any lasting rift between the pair.

Speaking after Portugal’s 2-1 win over Norway in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday, Jesus said: “For me, everything is open. Cris has to decide what he wants to do with his own life. It was a misunderstanding and for me, it’s easy to resolve this situation. There are no bad feelings with Cristiano… Ronaldo will decide what he wants to do. I am not the one who decides this.”

Ronaldo left the Portugal camp after a disagreement with Jesus over playing time, and has stayed quiet since returning to Madrid despite earlier promising to reveal the “truth” behind his departure.
