In a post on his Instagram account, Cristiano Ronaldo confirmed that he is back to activities at Al-Nassr this Wednesday.

The publication suggests that the athlete will be available to coach Jorge Jesus for the next match on Friday against Al-Ittihad, after an absence due to protest.

The player had refused to play in the team's last match against Al-Riyadh, last Monday. The reason was a protest against the PIF (Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia) due to an alleged lack of investment in his club and favoring rivals.

Possible Departure

The signing of Karim Benzema by Al-Hilal, the leader of the Saudi Championship, was the trigger for the 'war' between the Portuguese star and the Saudi Fund to erupt. According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo might even leave Saudi football in June this year.
