Ronaldo said he had agreed to a plan for managing his playing time and expected the coach to publicly clarify the situation and accept responsibility. He said Jesus did not follow through and instead spoke aggressively at a press conference, causing a breakdown of trust. [ 4 ]
Ronaldo said: “I can promise all my fans, and naturally especially all Portuguese people, that we will have one or more farewell matches.
