Playing under the current coach is not an ideal scenario for Ronaldo. If Fernando Santos continues as the coach, then I don't think that Ronaldo should remain active in international football anymore.
Fernando Santos was fired from Portugal

in the portugal team ronaldo once again criticized the portugal coach and as the portugal coach didn't like the criticism he put ronaldo on the bench, and with that there was a feeling of discomfort in the portugal team. the biggest of ronaldo's problems is that in addition to not being fitter, he has been criticizing the coaches and that's not a good thing because he's just a player and owes the coaches obedience
now that he has gone to play in a lower league i can't see him being at the same level to play in the portugal team knowing that in portugal in recent times there have been many new players with incredible talent, ronaldo should retire and become a coach, this could even be a good solution for him
