Speaking about the character of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, Romario was quick to praise his professionalism and direct nature. 'Cristiano seems a very objective person,' he explained while discussing the rift. While Romario admitted to having a cordial past with the current Portugal boss, stating, 'I like Jorge Jesus. I had a relationship with him when he coached Flamengo. I met him five or six times and he was always a great person,' he did not let that friendship cloud his judgment regarding the current dispute.
