Minute 10 tribute for Lionel Messi. 🔟🩵🤍

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇵🇹 OFFICIAL! CRISTIANO RONALDO STATEMENT: “This is the truth on what has happened with Jorge Jesus”.

As I promised, I decided to recount, in the first person and directly, the circumstances surrounding the last training camp of the National Team.

After the 2026 World Cup I prepared a letter to the Portuguese people, which I still keep, with the words I want to address to them when I leave our team for good.

At the end of the competition, already on the flight back from the United States, the President of the Federation asked and insisted that I reconsider the decision to leave, because the FPF wanted me to continue.

Right afterwards he asked me for my opinion on the name of the current head coach, which he was considering alongside other names he did not reveal to me.

I told the President of the Federation that, in my opinion, it would be the right choice.

That is why, on the day the current head coach was presented, I was genuinely happy with the choice. It was the right option, as the results are confirming.

A few days later I received a first contact from the new national team coach saying he would like to meet me in person. I said yes and we scheduled it for the end of my holidays.

We met at the Cidade do Futebol, where my club was holding its pre-season training camp.
That day the coach told me he was counting on me and that my presence was fundamental to his project. He presented me, right there, with a plan for my participation. He told me I would play the first match and the last one, and that for reasons of physical management he would always make three to four changes per match.

At that point he raised the possibility of me not travelling with the national team to Norway and Denmark. He proposed that I play the first match and stay in Portugal, then rejoin before the match at the Dragão.

I refused this proposal immediately. It seemed obvious to me that I could not accept it. It was not because I would not play the matches abroad that I would stop captaining our team. That privilege of staying in Portugal would not be a good example.

The coach ended up agreeing with my analysis.

This conversation was attended by Simão Coutinho, sporting director of Al Nassr, the person to whom the current coach reported throughout last season and one of those responsible for his signing by the club in 2025.

On the eve of the start of the camp the coach came to my house in Lisbon, at his request, for another conversation with me. The conversation was calm and all the principles agreed in August were maintained.

I played the match at Alvalade and, although substituted, I made no problem of it. I put the armband on Bruno Fernandes myself, far from imagining that I might be taking my last steps as a player and captain of the National Team. What mattered to me that day was our victory. Winning is always good; in Portugal and for my country, even better.

At lunchtime on the day of the match in Norway, an assistant to the coach came to the table where the group was having lunch and informed me that the coach wanted to speak to me.

To my absolute surprise, the coach asked me if I was fit to play 30 minutes. I was fully focused on my physical recovery, integrated with my teammates as always, and thinking that I would not play that day. Without any problem.

This request was something outside my physical recovery and training plan — because I was only going to play on the 4th at the Dragão — but of course I said yes. He replied that I should then be ready because I would play 30 minutes.
The rest everyone knows. I warmed up from half-time, watched the minutes go by, and was not called.

The coach had broken his word to me.

Connecting the dots: Wicknell Chivayo, gold smuggling, & terrorism.

We all know the brutal conflict in Sudan between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) & the regular army has been raging since April 2023. But just yesterday, a massive bomb dropped in Malawi: General Paul Valentino Phiri was arrested by the Anti-Corruption Bureau. The charge? Alleged involvement in property deals linked to "terrorism." In plain terms, he’s accused of helping arm Sudanese rebels with heavy weaponry.

This isn't a sudden development. Back in July 2025, a Platform for Investigative Journalism (PIJ) report revealed that US intelligence believed top Malawian military officials were secretly funnelling heavy arms to Sudan.

Now, this is where Wicknell Chivayo enters the frame. It’s well-documented that Chivayo met with former Malawian President Peter Mutharika multiple times, & he also had sit-downs with Lazarus Chakwera. While the investigators targeting General Phiri haven’t officially named the financial backer behind these massive weapon shipments—which are rumoured to be worth up to $4 billion—the word on the street points squarely at Chivayo. We all know Chivayo was just a front. There is really only one person who controls that kind of liquid cash, largely because they can’t use standard banking channels.
While there is no paper trail proving who funded the July 2025 weapons shipment, look at the timeline: on July 15, 2025, Chivayo flew into Malawi & met with then-President Chakwera. Is that just a coincidence? Highly unlikely. I mean days before the shipment.

To understand the scale of this, you have to look at the money. Gold is the lifeblood of the RSF; they control the mines in Darfur, mill the ore, & smuggle the metal out of Sudan. That’s where Kenya comes in as a major transit hub. Including Tanzania. In February 2025, Nairobi even hosted RSF political meetings, & Kenyan President William Ruto was spotted personally chauffeuring Chivayo around recently. Ruto himself has faced heavy accusations of holding personal & commercial ties to the RSF, mostly tied to gold smuggling. To add fuel to the fire, in June 2025, the Sudanese government claimed they discovered Kenyan-labelled weapons and ammunition hidden in RSF caches across Khartoum and Omdurman.
Chivayo simply knew too much. It's telling that he wasn't around to see General Phiri's arrest. Did the heat finally get to him? Did US intelligence catch up with him? Or did his handlers realize the net was closing in, choosing to eliminate him & his wife—who was by his side through it all—to erase their own ties to international terrorism?

What happened right after Chivayo’s helicopter crashed tells you everything you need to know. Within minutes, the army swarmed his mansion & completely locked it down. Nobody was allowed inside. Not family, not friends—absolutely no one.

Neighbours made complaints about mysterious digging in Chivayo’s garden. The excavation was so intense that tunnels began collapsing, causing cracks to ripple through the walls of neighbouring homes. Chivayo was hoarding billions in gold, diamonds, & cash on that property because the people he associated with couldn't—or wouldn't—use banks. Tanzania president even offered to send mercenaries to help secure the house.

The sanctioned Dagalo family, who fund the RSF, have deep ties here. RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo has held meetings with the exact same presidents we used to see Chivayo rubbing shoulders with. Including Rhamaposa who enjoyed an exclusive meeting with him.

Ultimately, Chivayo wanted to play with the big boys, but his pathological need to show off was his downfall. He ended up in a black bin bag. He was a careles operator who facilitated the funding of terrorism, smuggled gold, & laundered money, all while bleeding taxpayers dry to fund his lavish lifestyle.

As for what happens next, we’ll have to watch General Phiri’s case unfold.

Sebep: Nafaka çocuğun masrafı içindir. Anneyi lüks hayat yaşatmak için değil.
