Portugal coach Paulo Bento insisted Thursday he had no idea why defender Ricardo Carvalho stormed out of a training camp ahead of a Euro 2012 qualifier against Cyprus and announced his decision to quit international football.
After arriving in Cyprus, coach Bento said it remained unclear why Carvalho walked out from the camp in Portugal ahead of Friday’s game.
“Carvalho joined training with us. It was only just before we actually left (for Cyprus) that we were notified he wasn’t coming with us,” Bento said.
“We’re still a team of 22 good players, even though he’s not here,” Bento said. “There are many other good players in the squad available to help ... We’ll have to move on and do our best.”
As for Carvalho, the Real Madrid star said in a statement he felt hurt at the way he had been treated but didn’t explain what had happened.
