Ruling
Who long will it take Cristiano Ronaldo to pay off measly Portugal fine?
Summarised by MatchPal
Ronaldo accepted a €255 fine and 30-day suspension for walking out on Portugal's camp; he'll earn it back in under a minute.
Cristiano Ronaldo has accepted punishment from the Portuguese Football Federation following his public dispute with manager Jorge Jesus. The 41-year-old was handed a backdated 30-day suspension and a €255 fine after walking out of the national team camp before a Nations League match against Denmark. Ronaldo had accused Jesus of breaking promises about his role in the team. Given his reported earnings of £488,000 per day at Al-Nassr, the fine is largely symbolic—analysts estimate he will earn the amount back in approximately 30 seconds.
