Cristiano Ronaldo fined €255, suspended 30 days after Portugal walk-out

Cristiano Ronaldo has been fined €255 ($285.90) and handed a 30-day suspension by the Portuguese Football Federation after walking out on the national team during last month's UEFA Nations League campaign.

Portugal have two Nations League matches to come -- against Denmark and Wales in November and Ronaldo is set to be eligible for these games.

The 41-year-old left the squad ahead of Portugal's clash with Denmark after a dispute with head coach Jorge Jesus. Ronaldo accused Jesus of breaking promises over his playing time, having been left on the bench against Norway.

The fine was the maximum allowable by the federation after mitigating circumstances were taken into account, with the federation adding that Ronaldo's confession and clean disciplinary record helped to reduce the punishment.

After leaving the squad, Ronaldo posted a statement accusing Jesus of "breaking his word" to him while he also detailed his dispute with the coach.

"To my absolute surprise, the coach asked me whether I was ready to play 30 minutes [against Norway]," Ronaldo said of the incident with Jesus that led to him leaving camp. "I was completely focused on my physical recovery, integrated with my teammates as always, and thinking that I would not play that day. I had no problem with that.

"This request was outside my physical recovery and training plan -- because I was only supposed to play on Oct. 4 at the Dragão -- but obviously I said yes. He told me to be prepared because I would play 30 minutes.
