In an unprecedented escalation of the Portuguese national team crisis, Luis Henrique, the lawyer of coach Jorge Jesus, attacked the leader Cristiano Ronaldo with harsh words, saying that “legends end up alone in the Olympus surrounded by mirrors,” announcing at the same time his resignation from writing in the “Record” newspaper because the historic scorer is one of its owners.

In his last article in the Record newspaper, which was titled “My Last Dance,” Henrique announced his resignation from the newspaper, justifying this by the fact that Ronaldo is one of the major shareholders in the “Media Lever” company that owns the newspaper.

The lawyer said in his farewell article: There are articles written with the heart and others with the conscience, and this article belongs to the second, and it will be my last here, not imposed by anyone but by a personal decision. Ronaldo is a major shareholder in the company that owns this newspaper.

He added: Since there is an open conflict between the leader and Jesus, and therefore with me, it is shameful for me to continue receiving wages from an institution to which he contributes. There is no intellectual independence without financial independence, and whoever criticizes the authority cannot depend on it financially. Freedom that is exercised only when it costs nothing is called comfort, and I have never written out of comfort.

At the conclusion of his article, Henrique sent a direct message to Ronaldo, in which he said: A large part of what you achieved for yourself, your family, and your country, we defended and praised here, and we reminded of it those who forgot it.

He continued: But with your actions, behavior, and obsession with some numbers, you have achieved what no opponent has achieved against you, which is to make us forget all the good you have done for us. You surround yourself with people who tell you what you want to hear, not people who tell you what you need to hear.

He concluded his article with a strong statement: This is the fate of legends. They end up alone at the top of Olympus, surrounded only by mirrors.
