My family and I thought about it, but then we came to the conclusion that despite the difficulties, you can't give up. I was able to look at the situation from different perspectives and I learned a lot, and I'm glad to be back.
The head coach made it clear that he was counting on me. I always wanted to play. The coach has talked to all the players, including me, and I know that I can still be useful to the national team. I want to take Portugal to the highest level and I will always help the team when needed," Ronaldo told the Record.
