07-03-2026 05:53 PM


Ammon News - Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo will travel to Spain for rehabilitation ​after sustaining a hamstring injury, ‌Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Nassr's coach Jorge Jesus said on Friday.

The 41-year-old, ​who has netted 21 ​goals in 22 games this season ⁠in the SPL, was injured ​in a 3-1 win over Al-Fayha ​on Saturday.

"After examining Ronaldo’s injury, it became clear that he needs a period ​of rest and treatment, so ​we decided to send him to Spain," ‌Jesus ⁠told a press conference.

"The medical staff diagnosed Ronaldo’s condition and confirmed that he is unable to ​take part ​in ⁠tomorrow’s match or the following one (against Al‑Khaleej)".

It remains unclear ​whether the five-times Ballon ​d'Or ⁠winner will be fit to participate in Portugal's friendlies against Mexico ⁠on ​March 29 and the ​U.S. on April 1.
