Cristiano Ronaldo faces possible six-month ban, fine after leaving Portugal camp
Cristiano Ronaldo could face a suspension of up to six months and a fine after disciplinary action was launched over his early departure from Portugal’s camp.
Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Portugal's national team and star for Al-Nassr, might be facing a potential six-month ban and financial penalty following his unexpected departure from Portugal's training camp 24 hours prior to their match against Denmark. The Portuguese Football Federation has initiated disciplinary action against the 41-year-old footballer after reports surfaced on Wednesday, October 7, 2026.
The federation's disciplinary board has placed Ronaldo under a non-automatic provisional suspension, classifying the matter as urgent due to the potential violation of team protocols. Following the board's decision, Ronaldo was temporarily suspended pending the commencement of the disciplinary proceedings. On Saturday, October 10, the federation transferred the case to its disciplinary investigation committee, ensuring that the specifics of the case would remain confidential until the investigation is completed.
According to the federation's disciplinary code, Ronaldo could face a punishment ranging from one month to six months in suspension, coupled with a fine if his early exit from the camp is deemed unjustified.
