Georgina Rodriguez has publicly attacked Portugal manager Jorge Jesus after Cristiano Ronaldo left the national-team camp. According to Goal.com, she questioned his authority by sharing a quote attributed to Sir Alex Ferguson on social media.

On Instagram she backed Ronaldo and targeted Jesus, posting: “If Jorge Jesus knew in his heart that he had no intention of using him, then why did he call him up in the first place? To make a point? That is not authority, that is insecurity.”

She added her own line, “I don’t know how this man can carry the name of Christ (Jesus)”, then deleted the Story minutes later. The Ferguson attribution attached to the graphic has not been independently verified.

Ronaldo’s sister, Elma Aveiro, also criticised national media, captioning her post “Tudo dito,” meaning everything has been said. Portugal have continued preparations with the 24 remaining squad members, while Jesus maintains there is no feud and that selection is his call, with the same rules for all.

Ronaldo has not announced international retirement, leaving his future with Portugal unresolved. Supporters now await his promised statement, which could clarify whether he plays again under Jesus.
