Cristiano Ronaldo Back In Training? Al Nassr Drops Latest Injury Update

A lot of curiosity exists amongst fans regarding Al Nassr‘s rest of the campaign. There are quite a few achievements at stake in the season, including the league trophy and the AFC Champions League. But Cristiano Ronaldo has been hit by regular injuries this season. Even though the severity of the recent one seems to be minor, will the Riyadh-based club take a risk on him? Is Ronaldo back on the pitch? Let’s find out.

Earlier in November, the Portuguese captain suffered a minor problem with his neck in a match against Persepolis. Yet the star continued playing without a break. However, will he continue to show the same fitness and persistence with his current muscle injury? Al Nassr provides a new update.

Al Nassr gives a hint about the situation of Cristiano Ronaldo

The star was seen recently in Dubai, winning recognition at the Globe Soccer Awards. But according to a fresh training video by Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo was not training with the group. However, the captain was seen in the video during the initial warm-up and later while exiting. On a positive note, it looks like the calf muscle under question is not as severe as thought to be. 

It is worth mentioning that Ronaldo was initially supposed to train alone for at least a few weeks. His previous training with the team saw him suffering from pain, which led him to a private recovery session at the club’s clinic. But now, according to reports, the player is already in China and expected to start training soon. Moreover, the former Real Madrid striker appears to recover in time for the much-anticipated Riyadh Season Cup.

Likewise, the current injury scare has gotten fans anxious about the star’s presence for the last dance versus Lionel Messi. The ultimate battle will take place on February 1st, and the cup is boiling with Ronaldo’s recent comments. Meanwhile, Ronaldo won another award to add to his illustrious collection.
