Only a symbolic penalty - Ronaldo must pay 255 euros

Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has been punished by the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) with an extremely mild penalty. According to a message from the Disciplinary Board of the Association on Monday (19.10.2026), the 41-year-old has to pay only 255 euros for the early leaving of the training camp. In addition, Ronaldo was suspended for 30 days, making him available for Portugal's next international match against Denmark (14 November) and in Wales (17 November) in the Nations League. With four wins from four games, Portugal had qualified early for the quarterfinals of the Nations League despite the whirlwind around Ronaldo. Most of the block already served that on 9. The procedure opened in October was completed on Monday. The Disciplinary Board fully approved the indictment. Ronaldo had therefore intentionally violated Article 160 of the Disciplinary Code. The Portuguese has already served his lock for the most part. The 30-day period has already begun with the provisional suspension on the day after the player’s provisional departure on September 30. The imposed fine should be able to cope with the superstar in the meantime. With his reported weekly salary of around four million euros with the Saudi Arabian first division team Al-Nassr, Ronaldo already earns almost 400 euros per minute. Ronaldo’s bickering with coach Jesus as the trigger of the procedure is Ronaldo’s behaviour in the past international break in the Nations League. Ronaldo had rushedly left the 2016 European Champion training camp after the Nations League match in Norway (2-1) and before the match in Denmark. National coach Jorge Jesus had previously announced that the attacker would once again only put on the bench. Ronaldo recently ruled out a resignation, but the continuation of his career in the national team he apparently made a replacement of Jesus dependent. The coach broke his word to him, complained Ronaldo. He apologized to his fellow players in a letter for his departure, he also asked the fans for forgiveness.
