Portugal suspend Cristiano Ronaldo, to serve ban up to six months

Cristiano Ronaldo has been suspended by the Portuguese Football Federation, according to the UK Mirror. 

It is punishment for the 41-year-old walking out of the national team camp after his explosive fallout with head coach Jorge Jesus.

This suspension has been automatically triggered under federation rules.

It is understood that a disciplinary council will now sit to decide the length of his ban.

Ronaldo is facing a ban of one to six months.

Despite publicly apologising, Ronaldo admitted he deserved to be punished for his actions.
