Khabib Nurmagomedov has criticized the way Portugal handled the end of Cristiano Ronaldo’s international career, posting a pointed message on his Instagram Stories within hours of the forward’s retirement announcement.
Ronaldo, 41, signed off with 234 caps and a men’s record 146 goals across 23 years, having captained Portugal to Euro 2016 glory and the Nations League titles in 2019 and 2025.
