For Ronaldo, more fear than harm
Ronaldo/Saudi Professional League
Portugal international Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to be fit again for his club Al Nassr’s upcoming match against Neom on Saturday, March 7, as part of Matchday 25 of the Saudi Professional League.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner suffered a hamstring injury in his last game against Al Faha and is reportedly expected to recover in time for the next round of Saudi Arabia’s top flight.

Physiotherapist Rakan Alwabar praised Cristiano Ronaldo’s physical condition in an interview with Saudi channel Al Ekhbariya: “The injury he suffered would have kept any other player out of the pitch for a long time,” he said, before adding: “But Ronaldo, who follows a specific training plan, diet and physical preparation, will not be out for too long. He will miss the team for three days and then he will return to the pitch as usual.”
Despite being 41 years old, the Funchal native has scored 22 goals and provided four assists in 26 games so far in the 2025-2026 season.
