Katia Aveiro, the sister of striker Cristiano Ronaldo, urged the player to leave the national team and return home from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
And I would really like him to come home and leave the national team and sit next to us. I really wish he wouldn't go there again. He's been through enough, and little people don't understand how great you are. Go back home. That's where you're accepted and understood.
