The repercussions of Cristiano Ronaldo's departure from the Portugal national team camp continue.
The captain of the Portuguese national team missed the team's training session for the third consecutive day, despite head coach Jorge Jesus confirming just minutes before his departure that the player would participate in training.
The newspaper Marca revealed that Ronaldo is waiting for his private jet to leave Denmark for Madrid.
The report indicated that this event could mark the end of Ronaldo's career with the Portuguese national team.
As controversy surrounding Ronaldo's absence escalated, Pedro Proença, president of the Portuguese Football Federation, decided to change his plans and join the senior national team camp, having given up attending the match of the Portugal under-21 team and returning to Denmark to hold an urgent meeting with Jesus and Ronaldo.
The meeting was held on Wednesday morning at the hotel where the Portuguese national team is staying in Malmo, and it was described as taking place in a calm and friendly atmosphere.
However, Ronaldo's absence from Wednesday's training opened a new chapter in the crisis, especially since it came just minutes after Jesus confirmed the player's participation in training.
So far, no official explanation has been issued by the Portuguese national team regarding the reason for Ronaldo's absence from Wednesday's training.
João Félix was the most notable development in the Portuguese national team's training session on the eve of the match against Denmark, while Francisco Conceição's absence from the game was confirmed according to Jesus.
The Portuguese national team is preparing to face Denmark in the third round of the UEFA Nations League.
