Cristiano Ronaldo retires from Portugal after 23-year career

Cristiano Ronaldo announced his retirement from international football after 23 years, ending a record career of 146 goals in 234 appearances.

Cristiano Ronaldo announced his retirement from international football after 23 years representing Portugal. The 41-year-old, who scored 146 goals in 234 appearances—both international records—made the announcement via video on social media. His decision followed a fallout with Portugal coach Jorge Jesus after Ronaldo was left as an unused substitute in a Nations League match against Norway in late September and subsequently left the team's training camp. The Portuguese FA suspended him for 30 days and fined him €255. Ronaldo won Euro 2016 with Portugal and two Nations League titles in 2019 and 2025. His final appearance came on 24 September in a 1-0 win over Wales.
