Cristiano Ronaldo's friend, Edu Aguirre, a reporter from Spanish TV show El Chiringuito, discussed on air Cristiano Ronaldo's departure from Portugal's national team training camp. He claimed that Jesus apologized to Cristiano Ronaldo privately and promised a public apology, but his subsequent statements at the press conference made Cristiano Ronaldo feel betrayed.

Aguirre: "Yesterday, Tuesday evening, a meeting took place. This is exclusive news. The FA president, the national team coach, and Cristiano Ronaldo met. Jesus apologized to Cristiano Ronaldo."

Why did he apologize?

Aguirre: "Jesus apologized to Cristiano Ronaldo because he made Cristiano Ronaldo warm up for thirty minutes and then didn't put him on the pitch, which was disrespectful. Moreover, he not only apologized to Cristiano Ronaldo privately but also told Cristiano Ronaldo that he would apologize publicly and publicly acknowledge his mistake. This was Jesus's promise to Cristiano Ronaldo.

But then he went to a press conference and spouted a bunch of lies that nobody will believe. That's why Cristiano Ronaldo exploded. Cristiano Ronaldo exploded because he felt betrayed. There are no other reasons, that's it. Your coach comes to you privately and says: 'Hey, look, here's the situation... please understand me. Okay, I didn't handle this well. We're in this together... forgive me. Yes, I'll hold a press conference, I'll explain everything clearly, I'll apologize. Don't worry, everything will be fine, all problems will be resolved.'

Then, twelve hours later, you attend the press conference, making things worse for Cristiano Ronaldo, and you stand there with pride as if you're the boss, saying that Cristiano Ronaldo is no different from everyone else? Then go home and do something else. That's why I say this is betrayal. Everyone has a limit, and when that limit is crossed, they feel disrespected. That's a fact. If it were me, I would have left long ago. I would have left even sooner.

Why? Because making someone warm up for thirty minutes, making a star player warm up for a full thirty minutes—even if there was a prior agreement—that's too much. An agreement that you won't start the match is one thing, but telling you 'go warm up for thirty minutes' is another. That's too much, too much. The game ends and you're standing there like an idiot. And they did this to Cristiano Ronaldo.

As for what Jesus said—Jesus is very cunning—he looked proud at the press conference, emphasizing: 'I'm in charge here,' and puffing his chest out even more, saying: 'I'm in charge here.' Yes, that's exactly what he said. 'Status is status, but all players are equal.'

Excuse me, I disagree. No, that's not true. Whether you like it or not. I can understand why Cristiano Ronaldo will be even angrier.

Josep, Josep, not all players are equal. Clearly they're not. Because when Portugal is eliminated from the World Cup or the European Championship, it's not Jesus who gets criticized, not Roberto Martinez, not João Félix, not Bernardo Silva. It's Cristiano Ronaldo who gets criticized, because all Portuguese newspapers and TV channels, whether they say good things or bad things, talk about Cristiano Ronaldo.

So what you need to do—you need to take care of your star, take care of your legend. You need to understand that the Portuguese team and the Portuguese FA cannot destroy the legend they themselves created because of a few minor Portuguese journalists or a small part of the Portuguese public who deliberately attack Cristiano Ronaldo. And Cristiano Ronaldo is tired of it. Cristiano Ronaldo is not a target for anyone's attacks. He achieved legendary status ten years ago. He has goals, money, titles, and a very happy family. He can do whatever he wants.

Now a coach comes along, disrespects him in front of everyone, and twenty-four hours later brags about that disrespect at a press conference? If I were Cristiano Ronaldo, I would have left long ago. In my opinion, he has suffered enough. In my opinion, he has suffered enough."

Do you think all Portuguese people are on his side?

Aguirre: "Yes, 100 percent."
