This Saturday, Cristiano Ronaldo documented his injury treatment in Madrid. The forward posted a photo with support on his legs, aiming to be healthy before the World Cup, which starts in June.
The number 7 was diagnosed with a thigh injury in Al-Nassr’s last match. In the final stretch of the game against Al-Feiha, the Portuguese star requested to be substituted.
With few injuries in his career, this is only the third time Cristiano Ronaldo has been unavailable for Al-Nassr. There is still no set date for the star’s return, nor for the Saudi League, which has been suspended due to conflicts in the region.
This is the second time Cristiano Ronaldo has suffered an injury close to the World Cup. In 2014, the star had muscle problems a month before the World Cup in Brazil.
Heading into his sixth World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo is aiming for a historic title with the Portuguese national team. An idol and captain, the 41-year-old forward has scored 143 goals and provided 45 assists in 226 matches for Portugal.
