FA: Ronaldo suspended for two matches and fined £50,000

Cristiano Ronaldo has been suspended for two matches and fined £50,000 by the Football Association.

Ronaldo, who was recently let go by Manchester United, was being investigated for breaking a fan’s phone last season.

The striker, who sparked outrage with a recent interview in which he harshly criticised the club, is currently in Qatar, awaiting Portugal’s opening match against Ghana tomorrow.

A statement form the FA said: “Cristiano Ronaldo has been suspended for two matches, fined £50,000 and warned as to his future conduct for a breach of FA Rule E3.

“The forward admitted that his conduct after the final whistle of the Premier League game between Manchester United FC and Everton FC on Saturday 9 April 2022 was improper.

“An independent Regulatory Commission found that his conduct was both improper and violent during a subsequent hearing, and imposed these sanctions.”
