Portugal: A powerful gesture from Ronaldo for Diogo Jota

Portugal: Ronaldo's classy gesture towards Diogo Jota

Cristiano Ronaldo made sure to leave his mark on history in his own unique way. To celebrate Portugal's UEFA Nations League triumph, the Al-Nassr striker, now 40 years old, gifted each of his teammates a personalized watch, specially designed for the occasion. This powerful gesture underscores the importance he places on the locker room and on this generation that brought another title home.

But Cristiano did not forget the one who could no longer be there to receive his gift. Diogo Jota, who tragically passed away on July 3 in a car accident, was also honored with a commemorative watch. Ronaldo requested that it be delivered directly to the player's family, "in tribute to his major contribution" during the victorious campaign, according to those close to the squad.

This gesture, praised by members of the Seleção, is a powerful reminder of how Cristiano Ronaldo remains both an emotional leader and a sporting icon. For Portugal, this attention to Jota adds a human and poignant touch to an already historic title.
