On a match day for Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo is not in Riyadh to support his teammates, but rather in Madrid to recover from his injury. This was confirmed by Jorge Jesus, who revealed that the fellow countryman has already traveled to the Spanish capital and that his muscle issue is more serious than expected. Even away from his team, CR7 made a point to show that he is keeping an eye on his companions, who will take the field at 7 PM to face Neom SC in a match counting for the 25th round of the Saudi league. The goal is to secure victory to regain sole leadership of the championship, following Al Ahli's win over Al Ittihad, coached by Sérgio Conceição. "Recovering and ready to watch the game today. Let's go, Al Nassr!" wrote the captain of the National Team and the Saudis on social media, indicating he is addressing the muscle injury he suffered in the last match – a problem in his right thigh – which will keep him off the pitch for about 4 weeks and possibly also from Portugal's training camp at the end of March.
