At 41 years old, Ronaldo no be di same explosive and energetic player wey e be bifor, and many supporters believe say im regular place for di starting line-up sometimes hold di team back instead of helping dem move forward.

However, tins finally reach one boiling point on Sunday wen Ronaldo remain unused substitute for di Nations League victory against Norway. Di player later leave camp afta e discover say e no go start against Denmark for November.

On Tuesday, Ronaldo bin release one long Instagram statement wey almost reach 2,000 words.

Ronaldo tok say Jesus first promise am playing time against Norway but no keep di promise, bifor e later change im mind about one agreed explanation wey both of dem bin plan to give di media.

Ronaldo tok sorry to fans and im teammates for leaving di Portugal camp, and e say say di consequences of wetin e do suppose "dey properly assessed and punished". But e still clear am say dis no mean say e don play im last match for Portugal.

"We go get one or more farewell matches. Time still dey for dat," Ronaldo tok for di statement.

Meanwhile, coach Jorge Jesus on Sunday tok say di door still dey open for Ronaldo to return if e decide to come back. But plenty pipo don dey argue say di relationship between player and coach fit don spoil beyond repair.

Delgado, wey be Portuguese football journalist, tell BBC Radio 5 Live say: "I no tink say way back dey. For di statement, Cristiano Ronaldo tok say im go return to di national team, but for dat same statement, e call Jorge Jesus liar three different times."

E add say di kind strong accusations wey Ronaldo make against im coach fit make am very difficult for both men to work togeda again, even though di Portugal manager don tok say di door still open for di star player return.

"For di opinion polls wey dem conduct for Portugal about dis wahala, only 15% of Portuguese pipo support Ronaldo and pipo believe say e owe am plenty, but im time don pass and e need to understand dat.

"Di problem be say Ronaldo no understand am. E still want kontinu to play like person wey be 24 years old instead of 41.

"Tins no go eva remain di same again. No mata wetin happun, weda e play again or dem organise farewell match for am, tins no go ever remain di same again.

"Wetin Ronaldo do for Portuguese football na sometin unique and incredible and we gatz to tank am for all di service wey e give Portugal. But at 41, e no get place for Portugal best XI."

Reports tok say manager Jesus say e never see Ronaldo statement bicos e dey watch Portugal Under-21 match.

Al-Nassr forward Ronaldo don score 146 goals in 234 appearances for Portugal, both of dem na world records, and e help dem win Euro 2016 and di Nations League two times.

E no look like say Ronaldo go retire from di national team bifor e reach di 1,000-goal mark wey e dey chase for club and kontri, as e currently get 980 goals.

But don im actions make di situation impossible to manage?
