According to Globo Esporte, Henry, Ferdinand, and Arturo Vidal expressed their support for Cristiano Ronaldo following his departure from Portugal's national team camp before a Nations League match against Denmark, which Portugal won 4-2.

Among the three, Ferdinand has the closest relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo. The former England defender was Cristiano Ronaldo's teammate at Manchester United from 2003 to 2009, during which they won the 2007/08 Champions League and three consecutive Premier League titles, among other honors.

Ferdinand took to social media to call for respect regarding his former teammate's career and questioned the recent criticism directed at Cristiano Ronaldo. He stated: "Where was Portugal before Cristiano Ronaldo arrived? What had they achieved? It was difficult for them just to qualify for major tournaments, let alone win them. What bothers me is that many people judge him solely on his performance over the last three or four years."

Ferdinand also referenced Cristiano Ronaldo's time at Juventus, Real Madrid, and Manchester United, arguing that his career should not be judged only by his current situation. He said: "I think many people should look back at his performance at Juventus, and his experience at Real Madrid and Manchester United. It's like three world-class careers rolled into one."

Henry also voiced his support for Cristiano Ronaldo. The France forward stated on RMC's "Rothen s'enflamme" program that the controversy surrounding Portugal's national team should not be used to redefine Cristiano Ronaldo's career. Henry said: "They should sort out their own problems. We in France have our own issues too. Judge an entire career based on this incident? Absolutely not. When I think of Cristiano Ronaldo, I will never remember this."

Arturo Vidal, a former Flamengo player and Chile international, was the most direct in his criticism of coach Jorge Jesus. He called Cristiano Ronaldo's departure from the Portugal camp "shameful" on social media, stating: "It is very ugly for a player like Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the top four in history, to leave the national team in this manner."

Vidal also criticized Portugal's coach, believing the team should have protected Cristiano Ronaldo. He said: "I think the coach's approach was terrible. Cristiano Ronaldo should be cherished and protected. He has given everything for Portugal and made this country one of the strongest in the world. Such a player should not leave like this. Cristiano Ronaldo has the right to do what he wants. Some coaches don't respect that."

Cristiano Ronaldo left Portugal's national team camp after coach Jorge Jesus confirmed he would be benched for the Denmark match. Cristiano Ronaldo subsequently announced his decision to depart from the team camp. Although Cristiano Ronaldo did not play, Portugal defeated Denmark 4-2 in the Nations League.
