Saudi media outlets reported that Cristiano Ronaldo’s latest medical tests were not reassuring, and the Portuguese star could be sidelined for an extended period.
Ronaldo left Al-Nassr’s recent match against Al-Fayha in the Saudi League due to a muscle injury, causing considerable concern at a crucial stage of the season.
According to the newspaper Al-Riyadh, the tests confirmed a hamstring injury, without specifying the expected duration of his absence.
Overall, the situation is not promising, and some sources have reported that Ronaldo’s absence could last for two months, meaning he would not return until the final rounds of the Saudi Professional League.
The 41-year-old is also concerned that this injury could have a lasting physical impact, potentially ruling him out of the 2026 World Cup or limiting his role to supporting from the bench.
For its part, Al-Nassr will ensure Ronaldo receives an optimal treatment program and will not rush his return to avoid any setback that could jeopardize his participation in the World Cup with Portugal.
It is worth noting that Al-Nassr currently leads the Saudi League standings, and Ronaldo is the team’s top scorer with 21 goals, ranking third in the Saudi League’s overall scoring charts.
