Today, Al-Nassr will face Al-Taawoun in the 32nd round of the Saudi Pro League, but the league's biggest star will be absent from the pitch.
Details: According to Saudi media reports, the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo will sit out this fixture.
The 40-year-old Al-Nassr striker is still recovering from a muscle injury that also sidelined him for the previous game against Al-Okhdood (9-0).
In 28 Saudi Pro League matches this season, Cristiano Ronaldo has recorded 23 goals and 3 assists.
Al-Nassr currently sits fourth in the Pro League standings, trailing Al-Qadisiyah by two points. However, Stefano Pioli's squad has a game in hand.
Reminder: Earlier, Cristiano Ronaldo invited fans to play in the second season of the UFL football video game.
