Saturday's match against Al Fayha turned into a real disappointment for Cristiano Ronaldo, despite his team securing their twelfth consecutive victory. During the game, the Portuguese forward suffered a muscle injury that forced him to leave the pitch early in the 81st minute after feeling a sharp pain in the back of his thigh.
Details: Subsequent medical examinations, including an MRI scan, confirmed the severity of the injury. Al Nassr's press service released an official medical report stating that the 41-year-old star has been diagnosed with a hamstring injury.
The club announced that Cristiano has already begun his rehabilitation program and that his condition will be monitored daily by the medical staff.
Although the official statement did not specify the expected recovery timeline, injuries of this nature typically require a lengthy period of rest.
It's worth noting that this season, the legendary Portuguese has featured in 26 matches for the Saudi club across all competitions, netting 22 goals and providing 4 assists.
Reminder: Rumors have been dispelled. Cristiano Ronaldo remains in Saudi Arabia.
