Ruben Dias has asked reporters at a press conference to stop 'creating divides' regarding his Portugal teammate Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester City defender Dias is preparing for Portugal's World Cup last-16 clash with Switzerland on Tuesday, although their tournament has been overshadowed by Ronaldo's controversial exit from Manchester United.
Ronaldo's outspoken interview last month with Piers Morgan led to United parting ways with their iconic number seven, and many Portugal players have been asked about how the incident has impacted the national team. Now, Ronaldo is under pressure as a result of his performances, with some sections of the Portuguese media calling for him to be dropped vs Switzerland.
