Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival in Saudi Arabia changed the landscape of global football, but a new revelation suggests his impact behind the scenes was even more significant. Former team-mate Alvaro Gonzalez has opened up about a selfless gesture made by the Portuguese icon regarding a dispute over unpaid wages.
Portugal opened their Nations League campaign with a hard-fought victory over Wales in Lisbon, courtesy of a deflected first-half strike from Joao Felix. However, it proved to be a highly frustrating night for Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a second-half goal ruled out by VAR, denying him his 147th international strike and stalling his pursuit of 1,000 career goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo has admitted he strongly considered retiring from international football following Portugal's disappointing World Cup exit. However, the veteran forward held positive talks with the national team setup and has committed to continuing his remarkable career as he chases an incredible 1,000-goal milestone.
