Real Madrid's Carvalho Leaves Portugal

The Madrid center-back left on his own accord and "without communicating that absence to the FPF or to the national coach"(Portuguese Football Federation). Portuguese sports daily Record later said that an incident had boiled over during training involving Carvalho and he left, strangely, in Fabio Coentrão's car.
Carvalho will not fly out with the rest of the squad on their way to a EURO 2012 qualifier vs. Cyprus.

Update: Carvalho retires from internatinal football. He later explained, "I feel in full physical and mental form, as I have shown for my club and country, but if I am made to feel unnecessary and am not told so, then the only way is out," Carvalho said in a statement carried by Lusa. "Having earned 75 caps and been deeply dedicated in defending the national side's reputation, I have never before felt so disrespected and wounded in my dignity."
It sounds like he won't get to add any more to that already impressive number of caps.
