Portugal boss Jorge Jesus has opened the door for Cristiano Ronaldo to resume his international career. Ronaldo left the national team squad after being an unused substitute in a 2-1 win over Norway on Sept. 27. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who has scored a record 146 goals in 234 appearances, vowed to 'tell the truth' in due course.
After Sunday's 2-1 home win over Norway, Jesus said, 'If he wants to, he'll return.' Federation president Pedro Proença called it a 'misunderstanding to be resolved internally,' calling Ronaldo a 'symbol of our country.' Ronaldo confirmed on Instagram he left the camp after a conversation with Proença, stating he would explain his reasons later. Portugal sit top of Group Four with 12 points from 12.
